The history and culture are my favorite reasons for visiting the U.K It’s been a while since I was there and your pictures are tempting me to visit again. Thanks for the beautiful reminder!!
My family and I will surely visit United Kingdom next year. Any other attraction i shouldn’t miss?
Totally in love with London! My first trip when I was 14. I have been there 3/4 times and O always wanted to know more about UK. If only the weather would bo more good!!! This the only negative thing I personally think not let me come very often! But, I swear, I will!!!
The history and the scenery are my two biggest reasons for falling in love with the UK – I’m obsessed with the British royal family, and can probably give you the line of succession from before Christ kind of obsessed!! So royalty is a really big drawcard for me. But when we visited Scotland, I had never seen such awe inspiring scenery in my life. That said who knows if Scotland will stay part of the UK!
We live in Wales, if you want castles we have a lot of them, there are 5 within 10 minutes drive from my house. I think we needed a lot of suppressing 900 years ago.
Seriously, if you do visit, you must try and get out of London and see the rest of the UK.
I’m heading back next month! I used to live there for two year and I couldn’t agree more. Such a fascinating place.
luckyyyy:(
I love the UK! I have a friend living in England and have been yearly but still have so much to see, it truly is beautiful and full of history. And I happily live on fish and chips the entire time I’m there!
Great photos, this makes me want to go back to the U.K. Thanks for the inspiration!
Sold! I’m already planning a visit to the U.K. late next spring and I have to say, in my planning I’ve found that the natural beauty doesn’t get enough credit. I’ve found so many gorgeous natural sites that we’re planning on visiting! What natural site would you call your must-see?
