Some people are dreaming of a crazy life in LA or Dubai. I’m dreaming of a nice cottage house in the English countryside. Canterbury, Cotswolds, Towcester, Buckingham… Cities like Oxford, Birmingham, Wolverhampton*, Nottingham*, and Liverpool* are amazing!!! I have friends and family over there* and when I was visited them… ohhh😍🥳🤩 What a place Britain is… I love it (and the weather too!) from North to South it’s beautiful!
I live in Canterbury and I can say it’s beautiful! However the general high street is collapsing and we have lost some big department store like Debenhams and Nasons. The city has so much history though it’s unbelievable!
Nasons closure was not a surprise to me but still very sad . UK high streets are just going down . Love Canterbury and would love to live there but can't afford to , health care worker and the rents are way above my means . Beautiful city and I catch a train in when I can . My local high street is named as one of the 10 worst in the UK 😶 And it's true . Think we are actually in the bottom 5 🤔
Excellent video! We were lucky, as American tourists, to take a full day trip from London with the “London Walks” group to visit there several years ago. The guide organized our train tickets, walked with us into the city and cathedral and we had time for our own exploration as well. Your video showed the great variety of historical architecture and the lively atmosphere of an active city, which is not just a tourist site. Inside the Cathedral, we were invited to view a 30 minute ceremony that was led by the current Archbishop of Canterbury, Rowan Williams. Listening to his beautiful booming voice inside the Cathedral was an unexpected treat! Canterbury, like Winchester, Salisbury, Durham and York, are well worth the visit! Thanks again for your great videos - so helpful to visitors!
Thanks for taking me home. I went to school at The Langton and my ancestors come from Canterbury. My forebears are buried in the cathedral and one of them was archbishop Bourchier. I Loved this.
This city is beautiful and fascinating ... Canterbury has captured my heart, I hope so much who knows one day, have the opportunity to visit, in the meantime I am content to see it virtually, thank you so much 💖💖
Well you did it once again!! Beautiful. Hopefully when the Covid is just a sad memory you will go back and show us the beautiful cathedral. Thank you for making my Saturday a special day. Hugs and blessings.
My dad was born and raised in Canterbury during WWII. Grandad’s family had been there for several centuries. I have several ancestors buried at St Martins and St Dunstans.
It's a literary journey , ..of Chaucer's, ..of Eliot's , ...Beckett's martyrdom , ..a heart rending history, ...Chaucer's , ..one of the best in literature to recall ...thank the video for knowledge sharing
mon coeur se brise j'avais oublié a quel point c'est beau , j'étais jeune et stupide je ne faisais pas attention a l'histoire : !thanks for "la promenade"
Thank you for this fascinating video. I've been visiting Canterbury Cathedral since I was a small child over 50yrs ago. I want to return as soon as I can and explore this historic city
Canterbury is on my must-see list, this excellent video only reinforces that desire. Great info, as usual, I like the maps and the transport information.
That green door makes me want to go through. But oh my! You only get coffee & walnut cake like that in Britain. I used to bring home loads when I visited. I loved the video, but all I can think of right now is that cake…
Beautiful! Canterbury is now on my "must see" list, I had no idea it was quite so quaintly picturesque. And thank you for including the bit about how to get there via public transport!
I was born and bred in Canterbury , now I live in Spain I was showing my Students this video to show them where I am from . Pity you didn't visit in May/June to show of the west gate gardens in full bloom and when the river is clear from rain wash and looks crystal clear . I must say I am now home sick after watching this . I would also say that Canterbury is changing and becoming busier and the traffic is horrendous most days . Canterbury also has 2 train stations and a extensive bus station that you can use to visit most places in the region . Restaurants galore and many pubs bars and is most defiantly very trendy place to go . With links to Whitstable on the coast it is a very good base to sight see the region. I could talk all day about my Home of Canterbury , I feel very fortunate to of spent 40 years of my life there and although my body is not there my heart certainly remains imbedded in and woven into the beautiful City . I miss you
Thank you for the tour .. It brings back many fond memories though a lot have changed. I was a foreign student at the Canterbury Christ Church College decades ago and would love to visit one day.
Canterbury is a real treat, there is so much to see. By the way, I just finished J. Chaucer's 'The Canterbury Tales' and therefore I was espesially pleased to see his statue. Thank you for sharing! Excellent place! 🥰🥰🥰🖐🖐🖐
A splendid tour (a tour de force, indeed) of such deep history and preserved beauties. Thank you for choosing such beautiful but unobtrusive music. Also to be savoured is your style of orientation. Brilliant!🙏👍

Our daughter and her partner live close to Canterbury, so we often visit it. The buildings are amazing and so full of history. Thank you for a fantastic video.
Had a great meal at The Old Buttermarket when we visited Canterbury in 2017. The Cathedral was covered in scaffolding back then. Its a beautiful city, would love to go back one day, post Covid.
Wow what a beautiful city that is. It’s so lovely to see the old buildings. In Australia of course we have nothing like that. Really enjoying this and thanks for taking me along. P,ease stay safe and take care
I must say, your videos are a welcome sight to view with all relevant information on attractions and sights to potentially visit. It is just what we have been looking for to give us a good idea of places that we want to visit this year as opposed to venturing abroad. Thanks and cheers👍
Hello Robert, so glad you liked it, in a few weeks on the channel we have a video on the Cathedral. Been back and visited and have that and the oldest church in England we missed in Canterbury as well. So look of that! Hope all the info was is helpful.
Super video! Always nice to see Canterbury videos. I lived in Canterbury for 18 mos while on a Fulbright Teaching Exchange from the US, and the Kings School was my assignment! My house number, hanging by the front door, was purchased from Canterbury Pottery in the Butter Market. Going back next week to visit friends I made during that time. BTW, I’ve been binging your videos!!
Thank you very much for the excellent video. Cantrerbury will be one of the first places I will go next summer if the covid restrictions do not continue. I am amazed.
Would love to be able to see these places you go for myself. Unfortunately not in the foreseeable future unless I hit the lottery. I can continue to dream though. Love love love your videos. Keep them coming.😊👍🏻
This is yet another beautiful place in England and I once again enjoyed the beautiful shots and commentary! Now that I've gotten a lot older, I find these old places more beautiful and interesting, but I really have no idea why that is, maybe the atmosphere in this movie plays a big part. All these recordings get a nice place in my computer with my favorites.
Absolutely fantastic you have done a wonderful job of showcasing the best our country has to offer, your videos are so professional and your narration is perfect WELL DONE and long may you continue trophy 🏆
Thank you for posting I visited way back in the 1970s never saw many of the buildings you captured so well, makes me think I need another visit, take care
I enjoyed this video very much. My surname is Kent. My family's heritage dates back to this area from the 6th century, King Æthelberht of Kent. As a professor, I've also guest lectured there at the Univ of Kent. So good to reconnect with my heritage.❤️
Such a adorable city...fantastic video, this is what history means - so charming & amazing beauty.. oldest school looks old but so elegant & streets r just what England beauty stands for... 👌👌
Absolutely beautiful city, filled with centuries upon centuries of history! Cannot wait to see your video on the stunning cathedral, and of course visit it all for myself. Really love your channel.
Magnificent video about Canterbury!!! More and more I desire to visit UK and your historic places. Middle age city are so gorgeous that I stay without words to describe my feelings. Thank you for sharing with us such amazing towns 🤩
Love traveling with you on you tube. I have relatives who live in England from my uncle and late sister-in-law. They are all so beautiful. I love all the small villages.
Absolutely love Canterbury , visit regularly and think I have been in pretty much every shop and eaten in most of the restaurants 😅 The Old Weavers is definitely my favourite . Take a picnic ' tho and eat in one of the lovely parks , and the Cathedral is well worth a visit ( it was closed on my last visit possibly due to the Covid situation )
This was the loveliest travel video I’ve ever seen! I like the way you linger on your points of interest. I doubt I’ll ever make it back to England (from the US-my family came here from Yorkshire), so this meant a great deal to me. I’ll be sure to watch your other videos and thank you so much.
que maravilla,que preciosidad,soy una enamorada de vuestro pais,me encanta INGLATERRA todo el pais,espero que algun dia este mal sueño que estamos viviendo se acabe,y pueda visitarla,muchas gracias por el video tan precioso.
Due to the pandemic, I can't travel, but luckily I found out your channel, so I can visit, although not in person, so many beautiful places!!! Thanks so much!
Excellent video! I wish I could have explored the city when I went back in 2015 but I was with a tour group just for Canterbury Cathedral. Beautiful place & fascinating history! Thank you so much!!! I so look forward to all your videos.
Canterbury is a lovely city; the architecture is stunning and the Cathedral is really atmospheric. We stayed in converted stables in the House of Agnes; very nice 😊
Well, we have been back in the last two weeks and filmed the Cathedral, all be it with some scaffolding inside in places, and to the oldest church St Martin. Just need to get it edited so coming soon!
Covid has taken it's toll on lovely Canterbury, many businesses have struggled or closed but the beauty remains. Hot tip, The Veg Box is a great vegetarian spot to have lunch...
Ah, how lovely. I spent three glorious days exploring Canterbury in 2017 (including a day trip to Rye), and it was grand to virtually wander through the streets again. I noticed on a real estate site that 8 Palace Street was for sale recently, but I unfortunately have not yet won the lotto to make it my own. ;) Thank you for another great video tour!
Hello, how nice to have spent 3 days there. Plenty of time to really see the city. Yes the location is for sale for £745,000! Of course you have to prepared for all the tourists looking in through your windows.
@@MemorySeekers £745,000?! The listing I saw was £950,000. It must have been reduced. I live in a home built in the 1880s, which is considered ancient by Canadian standards. To have a house of Medieval vintage would be amazing... especially inspiring for writers like me! As for tourists, there are only a couple of windows facing the street level. Just keep the curtains drawn. ;)
I have never visited Canterbury, don't know why. I knew it was picturesque, but I didn't realise how architecturally interesting it is. Thanks for sharing this great tour of the city. New friend in The New Forest :)
I live there. It's close to London as well. We take the train up there once a month. London is lovely, but coming home to Canterbury again is better cuz it's not as busy here as in London. And I can breathe again. 😂😂❤️
Another great video! Just came here via the link from your latest video on Canterbury (left comment there). Just subbed and looking forward to your next posting.
Very Nice whistle-stop tour in my area nice to see you here, Canterbury is great, when having lunch at Weavers my friend was complaining about a fly in her wine i threw it into the water and below a punt guide shouted can you put it in a glass next time please. I had worked at St Augustine's for English Heritage many years ago, walking in the grounds around the ruins litter picking and making sure it was still safe before opening in the morning was the part I liked best so very quite yet in the middle of the usual crowded city.
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
As always I enjoyed your trip “off the beaten path” which is my own favorite way to see a new area, village, town or city. Getting away from the obvious places that most tourists choose to visit in order to get a sense of what life was like in the past and what it continues to be like in a given place plus avoiding a rush to move on to another area/building which allows for more time to carefully look at and experience what a particular place has to offer are wonderful benefits of getting off the beaten path. One thing that I appreciate about you Brits is that you appreciate your heritage and generally aren’t in a hurry to tear down anything that’s over 50 years old. I live in the western US and this is a serious problem we have here. How can we learn about our history if there are no reminders of how our ancestors lived? Question1: On this and some other videos of yours I’ve noticed iron S shaped decorations on several old buildings. Is there any special significance to these Ss, or are they merely decorative? Question 2: Was St. Augustine’s Monastery directly attached to Canterbury Cathedral in terms of the monks worshipping there and also caring for the pilgrims and for the cathedral itself before the Dissolution of the Monasteries, or was there another order of monks who worshipped and led the services at the cathedral? FYI the crooked house reminds me more of Mr. Crook’s house/shop in “Bleak House” than it does of “David Copperfield”. (I apologize for such a long and rambling post. The video brought up a lot of thoughts and questions.)
Hi for your question 1. The S's and sometimes crosses are used to fix bowing walls, where the weight of the building causes the wall to bend outwards. Screws are placed in through the wall and into the floor supports, with a plate on the outside (in a fetching S or cross shape) to hold the wall in. 2. There were a number of orders of Monks around the Cathedral I am afraid I do not know if it was Augustine's. The monastery is outside the city walls. You can see it position if you google map on Canterbury. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.
If you enjoyed our tour of Canterbury then you can now complete it with a full tour of the Cathedral as we have been back to film it. ruclips.net/video/tE2s7QX8ZpQ/видео.html
Would love to.
Compliments for marvellous documentary my friend.
Some people are dreaming of a crazy life in LA or Dubai.
I’m dreaming of a nice cottage house in the English countryside.
Canterbury, Cotswolds, Towcester, Buckingham…
Cities like Oxford, Birmingham, Wolverhampton*, Nottingham*, and Liverpool* are amazing!!!
I have friends and family over there* and when I was visited them… ohhh😍🥳🤩
What a place Britain is… I love it (and the weather too!) from North to South it’s beautiful!
We too would a cottage in the Cotswolds!
It was nice to read your comment.
The grass is greener on the other side. I wish I lived in Greece lol
The home of my ancesters and where my heart lays although l now live many thousand of miles away Thank you for taking me down memory lane.
Our pleasure!
Where do you live now Valerie!? That was nice to read!
Australia...... Thanks again for the tour. ❤
We are going to Canterbury in August - I am so excited to walk down the streets, wander about the parks, visit the cathedral ... 😊
Have a wonderful time!
The buildings are So incredibly Beautiful! Thank you so much.
I have lived here for 6years now. Best 6years of my life. Forever in love with the city. Always something to see.
I live in Canterbury and I can say it’s beautiful! However the general high street is collapsing and we have lost some big department store like Debenhams and Nasons. The city has so much history though it’s unbelievable!
So many city centre are suffering even before COVID. Such a shame.
I'm glad we still have Fenwicks.
Nasons closure was not a surprise to me but still very sad . UK high streets are just going down . Love Canterbury and would love to live there but can't afford to , health care worker and the rents are way above my means . Beautiful city and I catch a train in when I can . My local high street is named as one of the 10 worst in the UK 😶 And it's true . Think we are actually in the bottom 5 🤔
I was born here and it's still an amazing place to be I don't live there any more haven't been for a few years now I still miss the place

Excellent video of Canterbury! I have always wondered what it looked like after reading Chaucer. All the best to you from Massachusetts!
So glad to have shown you!
My dad was born and raised in Canterbury during WWII. Grandad’s family had been there for several centuries. I have several ancestors buried at St Martins and St Dunstans.
Went to Canterbury some years ago and really enjoyed it, since watching your lovely city walks it has tempted me to visit again soon.😊
We hope you do, always more to see, something you missed last time you see this. Enjoy
Been there twice and saw only a few highlights. Thanks for this more in depth view . You get the feeling that you actually are there !
Glad you enjoyed it! Thank you!
Another winning video ! Thank you for a splendid tour . Canterbury's history is rich indeed .
It's a literary journey , ..of Chaucer's, ..of Eliot's , ...Beckett's martyrdom , ..a heart rending history, ...Chaucer's , ..one of the best in literature to recall ...thank the video for knowledge sharing

Exeptionally beatiful city. It's amazing that the British kept their historic antiquity in such a srate. Thank you a lot. Enjoyed every moment.
I am so glad we still have this history too!
Coventry was unique until Hitler destroyed it , bombing civilians we don't moan because it's in the past and we are white not black at the moment
You would never get bored in this particular, and beautiful city! 🤣. Thank you for this most interesting and educational video!
Thank you Cassandra, still more to see that we didn’t have time for so yes never get bored. 😊

As we are doing the pilgrimage route from Winchester this summer your vids are most helpful. 😊
So glad they have been helpful. Have a wonderful trip.
Absolutely Beautiful! Added to my bucket list, would love to visit the Cathedral. God Bless!😇🙏
Hope to go back soon and visit the cathedral 😊
I went to university at Canterbury, I loved my time there, would love to go back at some point
Those places are beautiful I never visited England 🏴 yet but I will and with your advice’s will be easier
Hope you do! Thank you
This is a beautiful city full of history. I wish I can visit some day.TQ.
Hope you can
TQ so much
Such a beautiful video at a time that I am 20 days away to relocating to Canterbury. Mixed feelings 😧
Hope it works out for you. I new chapter!
Due to the pandemic, I can't travel, but luckily I found out your channel, so I can visit, although not in person, so many beautiful places!!! Thanks so much!
Thank you for joining us Loredana 😊
@@MemorySeekers you are wonderful!!!
Excellent video! I wish I could have explored the city when I went back in 2015 but I was with a tour group just for Canterbury Cathedral. Beautiful place & fascinating history! Thank you so much!!! I so look forward to all your videos.
What a shame you only saw the cathedral. Still that is impressive.
Дякую вам за прекрасну екскурсію. Яке красиве старовинне місто. Райони вздовж річки нагадують Брюгге.
Canterbury is a lovely city; the architecture is stunning and the Cathedral is really atmospheric. We stayed in converted stables in the House of Agnes; very nice 😊
I literally live in The Buttermarket opposite Canterbury Cathedral! I can see it from my kitchen! It’s such a lovely city!
How wonderful! Amazing location.
Always enjoy these beautiful videos
Thank you
Love to see more of Canterbury especially the Cathedral.
Well, we have been back in the last two weeks and filmed the Cathedral, all be it with some scaffolding inside in places, and to the oldest church St Martin. Just need to get it edited so coming soon!
Thank you@@MemorySeekers
Covid has taken it's toll on lovely Canterbury, many businesses have struggled or closed but the beauty remains. Hot tip, The Veg Box is a great vegetarian spot to have lunch...
Yes like many towns and cities, hopefully people will come back and things will pick up. Thank you for the suggestion.
Thanks for the interesting tour. Looking forward to your new videos.
Thank you we have new videos every two weeks at the moment.
@@MemorySeekers I've already looked at all of them.😁
Great commentary and beautifully shot video! THANK YOU!
Ah, how lovely. I spent three glorious days exploring Canterbury in 2017 (including a day trip to Rye), and it was grand to virtually wander through the streets again. I noticed on a real estate site that 8 Palace Street was for sale recently, but I unfortunately have not yet won the lotto to make it my own. ;) Thank you for another great video tour!
Hello, how nice to have spent 3 days there. Plenty of time to really see the city. Yes the location is for sale for £745,000! Of course you have to prepared for all the tourists looking in through your windows.
@@MemorySeekers £745,000?! The listing I saw was £950,000. It must have been reduced. I live in a home built in the 1880s, which is considered ancient by Canadian standards. To have a house of Medieval vintage would be amazing... especially inspiring for writers like me! As for tourists, there are only a couple of windows facing the street level. Just keep the curtains drawn. ;)
I have never visited Canterbury, don't know why. I knew it was picturesque, but I didn't realise how architecturally interesting it is. Thanks for sharing this great tour of the city. New friend in The New Forest :)
Hello hope you make the trip at some point well worth it! Great day out, welcome thank you for joining us!
Your videos are so informative and interesting, thank you so much.
Wish you much more success with the channel. Keep up the great work 👏🏻
Thank you very much. So kind 😊
I miss you Canterbury 😭
Happy 2022 to all!!! 🥂🥂♥️Beautiful city, one of my list for years. Hoping virus allows us to travel again 🙄🙃😎😘😘😘
Happy New Year! Yes hope everyone can travel more this year!
Lindo Canterbury! Amo passear lá ❤
I live there. It's close to London as well. We take the train up there once a month. London is lovely, but coming home to Canterbury again is better cuz it's not as busy here as in London. And I can breathe again. 😂😂❤️
Thank you for this beautiful video.
Thank you for watching.
I am obsessed with this channel! This video is a perfect example of your great work and I’m planning my next trip to the Uk accordingly.
Thank you much, very kind.
Another great video! Just came here via the link from your latest video on Canterbury (left comment there). Just subbed and looking forward to your next posting.
Welcome Arthur, thank you for subbing and joining us. Lots of videos to catch up on!
As a Literature student I have read Canterbury Tales of Sir Geoffrey Chaucer.
Super, thank you!! Beautiful!
Many thanks!!
Very Nice whistle-stop tour in my area nice to see you here, Canterbury is great, when having lunch at Weavers my friend was complaining about a fly in her wine i threw it into the water and below a punt guide shouted can you put it in a glass next time please.
I had worked at St Augustine's for English Heritage many years ago, walking in the grounds around the ruins litter picking and making sure it was still safe before opening in the morning was the part I liked best so very quite yet in the middle of the usual crowded city.
Spectacular video. I was just there and it looks just the same. Very helpful to me in getting around snd not lost! Thank you!
Hello Carol, so pleased our tour helped not get lost and see some of the main sights. Hope you had good weather.
This seems to be a very charming place, I hope I can visit sometime in the future when all this is over. Seeing and sharing places like this is why I love traveling and make videos so much! And please keep up the great job! Subscribed!!
Thank you for joining us in the trips.
As always I enjoyed your trip “off the beaten path” which is my own favorite way to see a new area, village, town or city. Getting away from the obvious places that most tourists choose to visit in order to get a sense of what life was like in the past and what it continues to be like in a given place plus avoiding a rush to move on to another area/building which allows for more time to carefully look at and experience what a particular place has to offer are wonderful benefits of getting off the beaten path. One thing that I appreciate about you Brits is that you appreciate your heritage and generally aren’t in a hurry to tear down anything that’s over 50 years old. I live in the western US and this is a serious problem we have here. How can we learn about our history if there are no reminders of how our ancestors lived? Question1: On this and some other videos of yours I’ve noticed iron S shaped decorations on several old buildings. Is there any special significance to these Ss, or are they merely decorative? Question 2: Was St. Augustine’s Monastery directly attached to Canterbury Cathedral in terms of the monks worshipping there and also caring for the pilgrims and for the cathedral itself before the Dissolution of the Monasteries, or was there another order of monks who worshipped and led the services at the cathedral? FYI the crooked house reminds me more of Mr. Crook’s house/shop in “Bleak House” than it does of “David Copperfield”. (I apologize for such a long and rambling post. The video brought up a lot of thoughts and questions.)
Hi for your question 1. The S's and sometimes crosses are used to fix bowing walls, where the weight of the building causes the wall to bend outwards. Screws are placed in through the wall and into the floor supports, with a plate on the outside (in a fetching S or cross shape) to hold the wall in. 2. There were a number of orders of Monks around the Cathedral I am afraid I do not know if it was Augustine's. The monastery is outside the city walls. You can see it position if you google map on Canterbury. Hope that helps. Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed it.
