Canterbury
'There is no lovelier place in the world...and I have seen Venice too.' - Virginia Woolf
[1904] Canterbury, England's most famous cathedral city of Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales and
now a UNESCO world heritage site sits on the River Stour in one of the most attractive corners of
rural Kent. It is easily reached by road, rail or sea, and has been welcoming visitors for
thousands of years. The Norman cathedral still dominates the skyline as you approach the city,
giving 21st century visitors the same sense of awe as their medieval counterparts. Making a
pilgrimage was an important part of medieval life and pilgrims flocked to the city to visit the
shrine of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Becket, who was murdered in his cathedral. Today
Canterbury still welcomes visitors from all four corners of the globe and has, with its many
ancient buildings, shops, bars and restaurants, retained both an old world charm and a cosmopolitan
vitality.
