England Vacations, Tourism & Travel Information

London is, of course, England's most popular destination for visitors. Manchester has morphed from being an industrial hub into a musical capital. The university towns of Oxford and Cambridge are historic in their own right. Nottingham, in addition to its own University, is famed for its links to the Robinhood legend.

While there's no end to the number of things to do and see in a city as old and historic as London, the best ones which you must not miss are listed here. The Tower of London has seen empires come and go, and every step has a story to tell. Westminster Abbey, Buckingham Palace, Kensington Palace and Hampton Court Palace have their own stories - of Royal lifestyles, and the heavy burden of the British Monarchy. Shakespeare's Globe Theatre recreates the experience of the Bard's Tudor Theatre.

Stonehenge is probably the most famed landmark in England, built over 5000 years ago. Hadrian's Wall is a symbol of the enormous power of the Roman Empire, and the distinct White Cliffs of Dover are a welcome sight for English eyes. Stratford on Avon is William Shakespeare's home.
