Canterbury,United Kingdom
Reviews > Europe > United Kingdom > Canterbury > Canterbury,United Kingdom
by Canterbury is one of United Kingdoms most well-preserved towns. It is not that big but has a sizable and important background. Situated about 1 hour drive from London, the town itself is quite stunning. It is famous for it's spectacular houses, beautiful city center, and for the Cathedral which is reowned for being one of the oldest in England.

In spite of it's size, the location has utterly much to offer.
