A One Day Trip to Canterbury

A One Day Trip to Canterbury, Canterbury, England (B)

Canterbury is a beautiful, small town, close to the capital of the United Kingdom, London. When you are planning a city trip to London, it is nice to combine this trip with a day trip to Canterbury. This town is definitely worth the visit! Since Canterbury is not that big, one day is enough to see everything. In this article I will take you with me back to Canterbury and tell you all about the things to do and see while traveling to Canterbury.

Canterbury is a typical, cosy, English town with small streets and beautiful architecture. I loved to wander around the streets of this town. One thing you should absolutely see (and visit) when you are traveling to Canterbury, is the famous cathedral. In the centre of the town you can find the entrance of the cathedral. It is opened every day from 09:00 till 17:30 and on Sunday from 12:30 till 14:30. The entrance fee costs £12.00.

You can also do some good shopping in the town. There are several shops: international shops and local shops. I personally love to explore unknown shops (or anything) and take a look at what it sells. I had the same thing in Canterbury, when we found a nice bookstore in the middle of the shopping street. I am a real book fan, especially when it comes to English written books, so I had to pay a visit to this store. I can take hours in a bookstore to explore new books. Eventually I also bought one. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
