Must See York

Must See York

On arrival to York a visit to the Minster is a must, this is Northern Europe's largest Gothic Cathedral and took over 250 years to complete. Guided tours can be taken and last around an hour.

No visit would be complete without having walked the walls. Try the stretch from Bootham Bar to Monk Bar - you will not be disappointed.

The JORVIK Viking Centre literally flies visitors through a reconstruction of the Viking Age.

Delve into York's past with a trip to the fascinating York Castle Museum, from an Edwardian pub, Victorian Police Station and Dick Turpin's prison cell to an exhibition on the swinging sixties!

Next stop the National Railway Museum, explore the three giant halls full of trains and railway legends. You will find all the classics here from the Mallard, to Queen Victoria's Royal Carriages to modern day examples such as Eurostar.
