Escape to the countryside for some fresh air, iconic landmarks and scenic surroundings. Here's a list of the must-visit places in England that you can easily get to by car, train or coach from London.
Stonehenge
Though there is no clear evidence as to the intended purpose of Stonehenge, it is believed to be a place where ancient leaders tried to communicate with the gods. Located on Salisbury Plain, Stonehenge is older than all of the pyramids in Egypt — more than 5, 000 years old and the site was worked on for around 1, 500 years, which will take you by surprise.
Brighton
You would've heard of Brighton Pier, Brighton beach and of course you need have a taste of some authentic (真正的) Brighton Rock. This seaside town is always noisy with lots of events, sights, restaurants and shops.
Bath
Visit Britain's one and only natural thermal spa. Take a dip in the Roman Baths that were constructed around 70AD for an experience of a lifetime. Not to mention the fact that Bath is rich in culture, history and heritage. You'll fall in love with this charming town set in the countryside and its 18th century Georgian architecture.
Lake District
The scenery is wonderful, with hills, streams and waterfalls. The Lake District is a mountainous area, with some over 3, 000 feet providing the best rock and winter climbing in the UK. If that's not your thing, then just simply take in the wonderful views.
