Norwich, United Kingdom

Why Walk Norwich

Norwich preserves more medieval churches than any English city north of the Thames — over 30 survive within the old city. The Norman cathedral, with the second-tallest spire in England, anchors the Cathedral Close, while the hilltop castle dominates the skyline. The city's medieval lanes, including the picturesque Elm Hill, have earned it a reputation as one of England's best-preserved historic cities.
