York is a beautiful, walled city situated on the banks of the River Ouse in North Yorkshire.

In Roman times, York was the capital of the empire's northern territories.

800 years later, York was captured by the Vikings who gave it the name Jorvik (from which York is derived). The Jorvik Viking Centre is well worth a visit.

Other attractions include York Minster (Europes largest Gothic cathedral), the Castle Museum, Clifford's Tower, the City Walls and "The Shambles" (York's most famous street).
