Its impressive history makes York an important tourist attraction. It is still encircled by its 13th and 14th-century city walls. You can find here important marks left by all remarkable European civilizations -- the Romans, the Saxons, the Vikings, the Normans -- among which the most important are the enclosing city walls and the largest European Gothic cathedral -- York Minster. The City Walls form a walkway on both sides of the River Ouse. The Monk Bar gate houses an exhibition tracing the life of 15th-century Plantagenet King Richard III. The city is also famous as home of the University of York. Climb the Cliffords tower to enjoy an excellent panorama.
Scotland and England are an treasure trove of large cosmopolitan cities, stunning countryside, culture, food, and friendly people. Experience all these aspects with a visit to Edinburgh (a colorful combination of new and orderly streets, narrow lanes and medieval buildings), York (explore its medieval lanes and Gothic architecture) and finally London (brimming with energy, art, world-class shopping, and English charm). Transportation between cities are by train.
