Day 7 - York

Today we visited the historical city of York, the largest and capital city of Yorkshire. We started with the free York Railroad museum, one of the top railroad museums in the world.

Afterwards we spent the rest of the day walking around the busy downtown area with its many narrow medieval streets. We started at one of England’s greatest cathedrals, the York Minster. Although we didn’t go inside the York Minster, we did visit tge interior of a beautiful nearby church. While scouting out a place for lunch we were able to peruse the many classic narrow streets and wander in and out of the shops.

Toward the end of the day we headed down near the river to visit some of the ancient Roman ruins and walk along the ancient city wall.Read more
