Forgot about that. One of the few places in London I can actually stand nowadays.

It's the only place within the M25 that feels like you're in the country due to Richmond park, while Hampton Court challenges Richmond park, Richmond park wins out each time for me, come rain or shine it's the place to be :h:
York - it's so beautiful all year round and it's full of history! I love the little boutiques and the tourist attractions!

I love the York Castle Museum the most - it has a Victorian street exhibition within it which reminds me of Hogwarts.

York Minster is a masterpiece, I wish I could go to York Uni so I could have my graduation there!

Finally a trip to York wouldn't be complete without a trip to the infamous Betty's Tearoom.

York Minster is beautiful, there are memorial slabs for notable people who have died in York/people known to York. You can also walk up the tower too :biggrin:

If you do go to York, I'd recommend the YorkBoats so you can get a scenic route whilst sailing down the River Ouse and Foss! Also my favourite attractions are: York Castle Museum, Treasurers Merchant House, Jorvik Activity Centre and York Dungeons!
Central London.

Wow, I'll definitely check these out! Thank you! :yep:
I'm from York, so I'm biased...

But beyond that; Central London, Manchester, Edinburgh and Bath for cities. Lake District, Yorkshire Dales, North York Moors for places.
My favourite places:

Edinburgh
Inverness
Lake District
Dunnottar Castle

plenty more places I'd like to visit! :biggrin:

Jealous!

My mum wants to live in one of those town-houses alongside the River Ouse (I think it's River Ouse)
I'm very fond of County Durham - there are so many amazing historical attractions there (including Durham Cathedral, castles, museums, etc.) and loads of unspoilt natural beauty, and the people just seem amazingly lovely. York is very nice as well.
