Yorkshire Dales National Park
Yorkshire Dales National Park
Extending northward from Leeds, the Yorkshire Dales are a world apart and arguably one of the most beautiful parts of England. Miles/kilometers of unspoiled countryside, country lanes and stone walls surround lively market towns, isolated farmhouses, ancient lead mines and great limestone caverns. This is the middle stretch of the Pennines and is great hiking country for the hale and hearty. The small village of Malham makes a good base if you want to explore this unique limestone countryside, but the market town of Richmond has more of interest, with an 11th-century castle, walking tours and traditional shops. While there, be sure to see Fountains Abbey on the east side of the park. The Yorkshire Dales are about 35 mi/55 km north of Manchester.

London
London
London is undoubtedly one of the world's finest cities. In addition to numerous monuments from its more glorious past, London is equally well-known for its pageantry and tradition. London has something for everyone - wide boulevards buzzing with excitement far into the night, quiet squares and explorable alleyways. Visit this famous city's parks, museums, galleries, monuments, abbeys and churches, skyscrapers and ruins, Georgian squares. Take in such events as the Ceremony of the Keys at the Tower, or the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace, or even one of the many theatrical productions. Some of the most exclusive shops are found along Oxford, Bond and Regent Streets. An old favorite and one of the world's premier institutions is Harrods - offering everything from Chanel suits and sliced salmon to caviar and even pets.
