Cheap flight to london : – If you have just a few days to visit uk, you can consider to take a 6 days introductory visit. One of the more popular choices is to start from London, travel north along the east coast and head towards Edinburgh, Scotland. Make a u-turn and travel south along the west coast and travel into Llangollen, Wales and then back to London. Do not be mistaken, I am not asking you to just make a circle trip without enjoying the best scenary of uk.
When you start to make your way north, one of the famous stop is the town of Cambridge. Visit this historic town and especially, the University city of Cambridge. As you are aware, the University of Cambridge is the country’s oldest institution of learning. Over here, you can feel the intellectural atmosphere. Enough or the learning culture, let move on to the most complete medieval city of York. Enjoy the great structure of York Minster and take a leisure walk among a maze quaint street, and not forgetting the narrow Shambles. It about time to take a rest after a day of travel.
Oh, wake up in the morning and head northward towards Scotland. As you travel along, you will see a section of Hadrain’s wall, which is the Roman coast-to-coast defense against the northern tribes. A little further north, you will reach the wild Northumberland National Park which is close to the Scottish border. At the border of scotland, visit Jedburge and see the house of Mary, Queen of Scots. Then visit Melrose and view the 12th-century abbey ruins. You will reach Edinburgh at mid-day.
I have been to a few times and you really need at few days to appreciate its beauty, However, if you are on a short trip, you got to make use of you precious day to explore this “Prince of Cities”. One of the highlight is the Edinburgh Castle which is Scotland’s Crown Jewels. You should also attend the world-renowned Edinburgh Military Tattoo which presents massed Scottish pipe bands. The event take place in an areaa on the esplanade of Edinburgh Castle. The event will round off your day in Edinburgh.
The next day, need southward to Grasmere, Lake District. The Lake District England, is considered as the finest of England’s national park. I have drived though this distict myself and enjoyed the beautiful lakes. Over here, you will enjoy beautiful scenery. Upon completion of the tour in Lake District, head south further to the the City of Liverpool. Do youk know where the group Beatles come from? I bet you know the answer. Wonder in the city center and enjoy this english city.
Continue your tour down south and drive into the Wales. This is another place I have visited and I like it as well. Stop at Llangollen, which is home of an international competition for poets and musicians. Ah hah, if you like poets and music, you will be trilled. However, if you are not, there are lots to do in Llangollen as well. Enjoy the Wales culture, artitect, and tast its food. There is alway something to do at a new place.
Next, head back into England and take a rest at Bristol. The best part I like about Bristol is to visit the elegant Georgian city of Bath. Of you know Bath, you know what I am talking about, It is famous for its Roman relics and the beautiful city, Next highlight is the Stonehenge. Visit the standing stone and see if you make sense of its existence. Next stop is at Salisbury which is know as the “city of Soaring Spire”.
