There is so much to see in Norwich. The city has
more medieval churches than any other in Western Europe. The central
streets follow their medieval course, outlined by the remaining parts of
the ancient city walls, which enclose a wealth of historic buildings.
Included amongst them is the Castle which towers above the city-centre,
a medieval Guildhall and a Norman Cathedral. The city caters for
tourists with an underground shopping mall leading to the castle, lots
of cafe venues, an open market, wine bars, clubs, interesting winding
streets and beautiful churches. The River Yare flows on the outskirts of
the city and the River Wensum flows through the centre, enabling the
hiring of boats and canoes and providing along its banks some brilliant
walks.
The city has several means of transportation including buses,
trains, river-buses, cycles and canoes, but its size which is not large
will enable you to walk and enjoy its many attractions until you decide
to explore the many places to visit which surround this ancient city.
