Quick Summary:
Every traveler's favorite list to England contains Stonehenge, the prehistoric circle of standing stones, and Changing of the Guard ceremony at Buckingham Palace, but there is much more to this country in the British Isles. Famous for its natural hot springs and stone Georgian architecture, the city of Bath features the only original Roman-era bath - the Great Bath - in England. Cambridge, known worldwide for its prestigious university, Canterbury, inspiration for Chaucer's The Canterbury Tales, and Liverpool, birthplace of the famed sixties group The Beatles, also top many travelers' must-see lists.
