York & Yorkshire
York - Possibly my Favourite City

The magnificent 'York Minster' as seen from the City Walls

Breathtaking Architecture
A 'must' for every Tourist
Bootham Bar , One of the few entrances to the 'Inner City'
'Monk Bar' allows entrance from the East
" Walmgate Bar "
The 'River Ouse'  provides much Leisure Boating
With "Olde Worlde" pubs along Kings Staith
Flowing from Ripon towards the Humber

Towards  Bishopthorpe
Many of the riverside Warehouses now rebuilt or converted to
provide luxury apartments
Medieval Architecture can be seen almost at every turn
Original Hall in the grounds of Museum Gardens
Clifford's Tower from the River Bank
And from the nearby Car-Park
Inside the Tower a narrow Spiral Staircase takes you to the Top
This vantage point gives a good view of some of the many Museums

And across the colourful rooftops towards the Minster
The World famous Jorvik Museum - Underground and Extensive
One of the best ways to see the magic of York
