Discover Britain. England

Discover Britain - England

England, the largest part of the UK, is divided into 5 regions: the Southeast, the Southwest, East Anglia, the Midlands and the North of England.

The Southeast is a highly populated region of England. There is a lot of industry near the Thames and there are a lot of roads and motorways. London, the capital of the UK, and such historical cities as Windsor, Dover and Brighton are situated here. The County of Kent situated here is known as the garden of England. The Southeast is famous for its resorts. Brighton is probably the best known of them.

The Southwest is the region where the main activity is farming. There are some very big farms, and a lot of small family farms where dairy products are produced. The romantic past makes it a popular place for artists, writers and holidaymakers. If you want to see the famous Stonehenge, one of the remarkable historic places in the UK, you should also come here.

East Anglia is very flat and it is another farming region. East Anglia is isolated from the rest of Britain because of its position away from the main national roads and because of its shape: it is more than half surrounded by the sea. It has beautiful cities such as Cambridge. The part of East Anglia called the Fens used to be partly covered by the sea and now produces good harvest. Oliver Cromwell, the leader of the army against King Charles I in the Civil War and Lord Protector, was born in the Fens area.

The Midlands, known as the heart of England, is the largest industrial part of the country. The most important industrial cities are Manchester, Sheffield and Liverpool, which is also one of Britain’s big seaports. Stratford-upon-Avon, the birthplace of great William Shakespeare, and Oxford famous for its university are situated here.

The North of England has some of the wildest and loneliest parts of the country. Here you can find deep valleys, rivers and waterfalls, hills and mountains. This part of the country is rich in coal and other natural resources. The main attraction of the North of England is the Lake District and the ruins of Hadrian’s Wall.
