Lived here for 5 years while at university..loved walking the town wall and you always went shopping before 10am as after that it got too crowded....you forgot to say that the old Shambles was where butchers plied their trade...you missed Whipmawhopmagate ...the longest street name and also the shortest street... the name could mean either "Nothing at all" or "Neither one thing nor the other" . It is currently a length of raised pavement between St Crux church hall and a small road junction. also the pub by the river that regularly floods and you can see the high watermarks of each flood....

Nice video but it confuses Petergate with Stonegate which is without doubt the finest street in York (and is the one shown immediately before and after the Low Petergate sign).

@denniscallan8 жыл бұрын
Yes, you could do a week in York. No doubt, York is an excellent destination, good for at least 3 days in the town, with museums, Minster, wall-walk, pedestrian zones and relaxing. Then you could do 3 or 4 day-trips offered by local tour companies in small vans, to the Dales, to the Moors, Castle Howard and Whitby. That countryside is all quite beautiful. Just google York daytrips.

Yes, there is lots to see and do, stay in a B&B for a better price than a hotel. But if you do, bring your own bath soap, they don't supply it...and make sure you have an electrical plug made for the U.K. Or you will ruin your dryer and curling iron.

Yeah only thing that's bad is it's £4.40 a pint carling in 90% of the pubs compared to £2-2.50 a pint in bridlington lol why massive difference?

One of the few historic British towns that still retains much of its historic character, unlike Italy, France and Spain that have many. The Minster is of course one of the most important mediaeval buildings in the World. BTW, Wagamama is a cheap commercial chain hardly the place you would want to go to if you want to enjoy the best of North of England cuisine.

When visiting York, I would recommend taking the free walking tour offered by the AVG Association of Volunteer Guides. You will be met by a qualified guide, who will provide a short interesting talk and close look at some of the ancient buildings, such that you can then, wonder around alone and be able to better understand what you are looking at. As I said it’s completely free and that includes no tips needed, or commercial recommendations given. The association of which I’m a member has been conducting these tours for 70years. No need to book. Just turn up at the ‘A’board sign in Exhibition Square in front of the Art Gallery. Open every day except Christmas Day. 10:15 and 1:15 each walking tour lasts around two and a half hours.

For crying out loud. You could very well film a Yorkshire Terrier (Little Yorkie Rippers), lol. My Yorkie wanted to see if his tives (relatives) were on walkabout. He calls his relatives his tives. It's just cool Yorkie Ripper talk he says.
