This
green and pleasant land, this sceptered isle, this crucible of empire and
pioneer of parliamentary democracy, is the most eccentric, extraordinary and
downright intriguing place on Earth.
A
journey through England is a journey through history. But not history that's
dull and dusty, history you can feel and re-live. You can lay your hands on the
ancient megaliths of a 5000-year-old stone circle, or walk the battlements of a
medieval fortress – just as they were patrolled by the chain-mail-clad many
centuries ago. Visit the sites of the legend of King Arthur, Shakespeare’s
sonnets and the palaces of royals – past and present. Then fast forward to the
future and you're admiring 21st-century architecture in Manchester, or
exploring the space-age domes of Cornwall's Eden Project.
Travel here is
amazing.
