Board a train and travel back in time from modern London to ancient York, the northern capital of Roman Britannia.Highlights- Roam through the historic streets of York - Visit the majestic York Minster and Jorvik Viking Centre This walled city on the River Ouse is packed with historic attractions. Enjoy an open-top bus tour and admire the medieval street, The Shambles, the castle ruins, the glorious Gothic cathedral and much, much more. History has been kind to the town the Romans called Eboracum, which until the Reformation was the most important city in northern England. But as neighbouring cities became wealthier and grew, York entered a period of decline, which actually saved much of its core from destruction and redevelopment. The result is the charming and beautiful city of today. Visit the city walls, some sections of which date from Roman times, and the Micklegate. Amble along The Shambles, a street that seems like the set of a Shakespeare play or explore the castle area, which also has a museum located in a former prison. Be dazzled by the jewel in York’s crown, the Minster. This magnificent masterpiece of Gothic architecture is renowned for its elaborate exterior, imposing nave and stunning stained glass windows such as one popularly known as the Heart of Yorkshire. Continue the journey back in time at the Jorvik Viking Centre, where the Old Norse city has been accurately reconstructed – even down to the smells from the time! Located on the actual site of an archaeological dig from the era, there are over 800 artefacts on display.
