Visitors Guide to yorkshire | |||||||||
Over 2000 years old, home to the ancient gothic cathedral York Minster, and encircled by nearly two miles of medieval walls, York can make visitors feel like they’ve just stepped back in time. One of the best ways to experience the city’s rich heritage, is on a guided Yorkboat River Cruise. Soak up historical sites like the Archbishop of York’s official residence, Bishopthorpe Palace, and the remains of the 13th century St Mary’s Abbey, as you journey down the River Ouse. When back on dry land, take some time to explore Europe’s best preserved medieval street, The Shambles. When you’re ready to return to the present, York has a modern café culture and plenty of stylish, contemporary bars to enjoy. You can dance the night away at The Gallery, with its five bars, three dance floors, and live DJs, or just sip cocktails at the chic Evil Eye Lounge.This ancient yet vibrant city is guaranteed to keep sightseers, occupied and fun seekers entertained. by Kate Single | |||||||||
