England
The largest country of the UK, bringing together London, ancient university towns, historic cities and scenic areas such as the Lake District and Peak District.
England occupies the south and center of the island of Great Britain and is the most populous country of the UK; its capital, London, is also the capital of the United Kingdom. The sights are exceptionally varied: London's royal buildings and museums, the university towns of Oxford and Cambridge, the historic cities of York and Bath, the music and football culture of Liverpool and Manchester, and natural scenery such as the Lake District, the Peak District, the Jurassic Coast and the beaches of Cornwall. The climate is mild, and May to September is the best time to visit. London's airports, Manchester Airport and the Channel Tunnel trains to continental Europe are the main gateways.
