England has a deep-rooted history that they are proud of and it radiates from its gothic cathedrals to its castles and forts that dot the land. Modesty and self-deprecating humour maybe some of the English’s most endearing attributes, but the countryside from Cornwall to the White Cliffs of the Seven Sisters all the way to the Lake District can be stunning, and some of the museums and galleries rank among the best in the world.
From exploring the Roman remains of Hadrian's Wall, the Roman Baths in Bath, the ancient megaliths of Stonehenge, viewing the changing of the guards at Buckingham Palace, to enjoying an evening at one of London's unparalleled theatre scene, there is boundless variety of this once great Empire. London’s streets vibrate day and night, lined with enticing shops and facades, and some of the finest attractions in the world. After dark, uber-cool clubs, top-class restaurants and world-class live music provide a string of nights you won’t forget…and somewhere the football will be playing!
Next day, you maybe back in the English countryside or visiting the historic Victory in Portsmouth or just lounging on ‘Murray Mound’ watching the tennis at The All England Wimbledon Championship; there really is something for everyone.
