England Tourist Guide

England has an overwhelming array of options for the traveler.
From historic towns and multicultural cities to striking
countryside and the ubiquitous country pub, there are numerous
experiences to be had. The country boasts a well-established
boating industry, and although larger cruise liners do dock at
major ports along the coastline of England, the country is best
explored from the inside, along the country's vast network of
inland waterways.
For the traveler, one of the main attractions is the capital,
London, located on the River Thames. This city is a multicultural
melting pot that combines historical palaces and monuments with
cutting-edge modernity in art and architecture. For those looking
to escape to nature, areas such as the Lake District, Cornwall and
the Yorkshire Dales offer green landscapes, mountains and lakes,
the perfect recipe for relaxation.
Many of the cities and natural beauty can be explored from the
water. The UK has a large network of waterways and a well-developed
barging and river cruising industry. Sailing though the waterways
of the UK offers a chance to sail serenely though beautiful lush
landscape, interspersed with historic villages and towns. Travelers
can choose to explore famous rivers such as the Thames and the
Severn, and pass though historic towns and cities such as
Shakespeare's birthplace in Stratford-upon-Avon; the university
towns of Cambridge and Oxford; and the ancient Roman remains in the
city of Bath. No matter which journey you choose, each one will
provide you with unique attractions for an unforgettable experience
of the United Kingdom.
