ENGLAND
Dont
be fooled by what you learned in school England isnt
just about dry lists of names in history books and musty, drafty
castles. Todays traveler will find England to be a charming,
fascinating destination, full of picturesque, famous towns, trendy
clubs and, of course, plenty of history. And, if that wasnt
enough, English cuisine is undergoing a revival London boasts
an array of chic new restaurants.
The most famous of all picturesque English villages
is Stratford-upon-Avon, home of William Shakespeare, but there are
many others well worth the travelers time. The town of Bath,
a town well-known to Jane Austen lovers, boasts unique architecture
and a relaxing atmosphere. Fond of the tales of Robin Hood? Then
visit Nottinghamshire, where the famous tales of derring-do were
set. For travelers not so enamored of quaint villages, London has
everything a modern traveler could want grand museums, old-fashioned
pubs and plenty of exciting clubs.
Of course, no trip to England would be complete without
learning of some of the history behind the country; consider visiting
any of the stately old castles or manors. London alone has many
historical landmarks such as the Tower of London, the reconstructed
Globe Theater and Buckingham Palace and, of course, if you
get tired of walking, take a break to admire the famous Crown Jewels!
