FOR YOUR INSPIRING TO VISIT VERY INTERESTING PLACES in ENGLAND
Centred on a majestic cathedral that's topped by the tallest spire in
England, the gracious city of Salisbury makes a charming base from which
to discover the rest of Wiltshire. It's been an important provincial
city for more than a thousand years, and its streets form an
architectural timeline ranging from medieval walls and half-timbered
Tudor town houses to Georgian mansions and Victorian villas. Salisbury
is also a lively, modern town, boasting plenty of bars, restaurants and
terraced cafes, as well as a concentrated cluster of excellent museums.
England is endowed with countless stunning churches, but few can hold a
candle to the grandeur and sheer spectacle of 13th-century Salisbury
Cathedral. This early English Gothic–style structure has an elaborate
exterior decorated with pointed arches and flying buttresses, and a
sombre, austere interior designed to keep its congregation suitably
pious. Its statuary and tombs are outstanding; don’t miss the daily
tower tours and the Cathedral’s original, 13th-century copy of the Magna
Carta. It's best experienced on a Tower Tour .
