Travel Guide

Beschreibung

The Roman city of Chichester commands a storied landscape where South Down hills ripple toward a shoreline mixing wild dune-backed beaches with old-school resorts - plus reminders of smuggling and war. Ancient memorials beckon - from England's largest castle and Viking burial spots to Britain's only cathedral visible from the sea. It's a land vibrant with creative imprints too - home to illustrious writers from Blake to Joyce, plus visionary architects forging the look of modernity.This guidebook takes you exploring Chichester and its surroundings to find incomparable natural beauty, hidden secrets, astonishing history, art of all kinds, and much more.
