York

York is a city with a history of nearly 2,000 years. From the Romans over the Vikings, every cool cat has been here. They have a huge amount of very well preserved old buildings like the city wall with its gates...



houses...



or the minster which can be seen from almost anywhere in the city.





Some ruins add a nice touch to a public park. This very special place comes with its own ghost.


Leading to the minster is a lovely crooked street with lovely crooked houses inhabited by lovely crooked people.


And then there's Bettys, a Yorkshire institution I've been told. They have really yummy stuff there. The perfect place for having a cream tea.



A few pictures of the riverside



And the main attraction: the inside of the minster. Breathtaking, awe-inspiring, beautiful. The minster choir is an attraction of its own. Loved their singing!
