Did you know that 11 of the carillon bells at York Minster came from St Mary's Church in Nelson, Lancashire. They were sent to York when St Mary's closed in the late 80s.

[@MrADews]

Thank you. I am a York resident who is very proud of my City but due to my wife being very ill I am unable to get out and experience York and in particular the Christmas market. So this video has reminded me of what it’s like. Once again thank you

[@GimbalWalkTV]

Great city!

[@somattalistenta]

They do everything so thoroughly in York, from the beautifully restored historic buildings to the market stalls, so well designed and built, you can clearly see it in the detail everywhere, it's no wonder York attracts thousands if not millions of tourists. Even the Christmas Tree is a real tree, not the usual boring artificial ones they put up in some cities. I grew up in York and emigrated to Australia in 1966 and I now realise that I should never have left. After about 50 years in Australia, it's time to go head home to my roots. Lovely to see the carousel in King's square. Thank you for a most enjoyable and memorable tour in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It would have been wonderful to see some footage of the Christmas lights during the evening.

York is one of the best places to walk around with its unique buildings and individual shops and especially at Christmas. The Christmas Market is always lovely.

Totally agree!

[@davidlittlewood8850]

Fantastic place, I used to go for this every year but my Mrs isn’t great on her feet now so she struggles but it’s a great place at this time of year, stay for a few nights is the best way and take a few Bob with you because you will be tempted but you will enjoy 🌹

I think, we lived as long back then as we do now ! 😁 Your camera takes BEAUTIFUL, CLEAR pictures !!! I can almost feel, I'M RIGHT THERE WALKING ALONG... THANK YOU,,,,,, AGAIN !!! ❤

How lucky you are to live in a place where the council takes pride and puts a huge tree up in your town centre and takes pride in your Borough.unlike Dagenham who no doubt have kept the same up from previous years and will be put on very soon ..

This is great. Sitting here during yet another lockdown during a massive fourth wave of COVID, with all our Christmas markets cancelled and most shops closed looking at life in GB almost back to normal.

I have an old schoolmate from way back, who has lived in Copmanthorpe almost all his life he's now 74 yrs old. When my wife and I visited and stayed with him and his wife a couple of years ago, he told me that they had travelled everywhere and considered York to be the best place to live.

York one of my favourite cities in the United Kingdom, me and my parents went up here for the day a few weeks ago.

[@sarahyates6055]

It’s sad seeing the streets so empty, it’s about 4 years since we were last able to come at Christmas and everywhere was busy and bustling with people and atmosphere. I hope those days will return soon. When you were in the Shambles I didn’t see the tea and coffee shop? I think it was at one end, it sold all loose teas and coffees and had a wooden floor, it was like stepping back in time I love that shop, is it still there? The other shop I liked and I can’t for the life of me remember what street it’s on but I know it’s near one of the gates, it’s an Italian ice cream/ gelato parlour I had caramel apple pie ice cream it was absolutely delicious. I hope it’s still there!

I love York any time of the year, but Christmas is a bit more special time!! Always have to visit the Shambles and look in every window for different things. In fact all the shop windows draw you in and put the Christmas spirit in your head. The market with all its unique offers. The sights and smells that you associate being familiar at Christmas time only. Thanks for giving me my York fix! 🎄

[@moirabardin9030]

I enjoyed the walk ,but I didn't like the crowds. that Christmas jumper was 🤣🤣🤣 go to pub. so much to see , I luv when we browse the shops and markets. the old houses of time gone by. very interesting place. videos are fantastic. you walk very quickly as I said before. stay safe.

Thanks for this video! It was reported in local media that they were going to put up large barriers to effectively seal off and control access to the city centre. (Knife arches and steel barriers). The picture I saw made York look more like an armed camp and for that reason I cancelled my usual December day trip to York. But I don't see any of this on your video so they must of changed their plans. Beautiful city though; one of England's finest. I lived there for 15 years and still consider it home.

[@Emjem1973]

Hi, I live in York and there are some barriers up but they’re not intrusive and don’t spoil the atmosphere of the city.

[@davemc9268]

@@Emjem1973 Thanks Emma. It was on the YorkMix website. The picture or rendition they showed looked awful and they stated it would be Spurriergate, Lendal, Duncombe Place and then around the market I think. Nothing ruins a Christmas like having the 'were all going to die horribly' message shoved in your face. Especially as Chester, another big tourist destination has none of that.

[@juliebrooke6099]

It’s to try to prevent terrorist attacks similar to what happened in a German Christmas market. Did you notice the lack of disabled parking (and few disabled people) in the centre though? It’s recently been banned citing safety concerns but I think it’s very disappointing and discriminatory.
