Norwich

Norwich, a historic city in Norfolk, England, is renowned for its rich heritage, vibrant culture, and stunning architecture. Dominating the skyline is the magnificent Norwich Cathedral, a splendid example of Romanesque architecture with its impressive spire and beautiful cloisters. The city's medieval roots are evident in the well-preserved Norwich Castle, originally built by the Normans and now a museum and art gallery. Norwich's narrow, winding streets are lined with a mix of medieval, Georgian, and modern buildings, creating a unique and picturesque atmosphere. The Lanes, a series of quaint streets and alleys, are filled with independent shops, cafes, and pubs, offering a charming shopping and dining experience. The city is also known for its vibrant arts scene, with venues like the Norwich Theatre Royal and the Norwich Arts Centre hosting a range of performances and exhibitions. Additionally, Norwich is home to the University of East Anglia, contributing to a lively student population and a dynamic cultural life.

I visited Norwich once or twice as I’ve got a few friends locally, but have rarely spent time in the city itself.
