As an American I do not know much about British cities. Today I am very interested in learning about what the top 10 most beautiful cities in the UK are. If you enjoyed the video feel free to leave a comment, like, or subscribe for more!
London, York, Bristol, Chester, Durham, Salisbury , Liverpool?, Exeter…………
This was a strange video. Included Manchester and Cardiff but left off York, Chester, Liverpool to name very few of many. The voice sounded like AI and they used some rubbish pictures that didn’t really show off the beauty of the cities that were chosen.
Yes, London and York for sure should have been on the list, then we have to remember cities like Durham, Bristol, Lincoln, Norwich etc, that are full of history, cathedrals and castles.
@@DarrellOakdenPhotographyI agree. Missed out the best parts of Bath and Oxford which are both more stunning than shown here.
Yes - I could see that they felt they should include at least one city from Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland, but it's an odd list otherwise (no disrespect to the cities included). @@DarrellOakdenPhotography
@@glennaustin37 Bath without showing the Roman Baths, Pump Room, The Crescent, Circus, Pulteney St, Pulteney Bridge, the weir, etc, etc....???!
I'm hoping chester as it a beautiful city. No York no chester 😮. You want a good castle. It's Conway I did think Canterbury was beautiful
York is lovely
I was just thinking this. How is York not on the list? Surely it’s #1❤
@@katydaniels508 I'm from London but York should have been in the top three
Many lovely cities were not mentioned, York being just one of them. And I can't understand how London was not included as it has so many historical buildings etc and is a massively green city with many Royal parks and other parks and green spaces. This video was a rather badly thought out piece of work in my opinion.
Where on earth did he get this video from!Rather than show Cardiff Castle they show a shopping centre and in Belfast there's a shot of Tower Bridge in LONDON!
I agree completely, I’ve seen others react to these videos and I find them bizarre. They miss all the beauty and focus on the run down stuff. I think it’s narrated by a AI , the English just doesn’t make sense and at times is completely nonsensical
Yeah they messed up. HMS Belfast is in the picture.
Not best choices of cities, poorly made and inaccurate.
I detect Chinese English grammar.
The guy that puts these videos together about cities in the UK has some really weird ideas about things and is often inaccurate.
What is strange list? Manchester! (I lived there), not York, Wells or Oxford? The pictures are horrible, missing out on the best views. No mention that Edinburgh has a mountain almost within the city and no pic!
To be fair, Oxford was on the list, but I agree that Manchester is an odd choice. If you wanted to select industrial cities, there is much more beauty in Liverpool, Sheffield and Leeds. I also agree that the picture selection was very strange, with Edinburgh being a prime example.
The photos in this video do not always show these cities to their best advantage.
Or indeed the city they are talking about ...The Belfast at Tower Bridge for example.
It's what happen when you use AI to create your videos. The channel is really bad for it.
Making up words like historicity 😂
@@Shoomer1988 listen for fear of looking thick can you tell me what A1 is ? I've never heard of it😮???that is what happens when you live in a village time stops
@@kathryndunn9142AI - Artificial Intelligence. People are using it to create UA-cam videos.
Guess what Tyler ? We have trees and hills in the UK !!
A Positive Plethora and Preponderance of them
His point is that because the UK is so small geographically, nature is that much closer to cities.
Never far from countryside here in the UK!
Wait...what?! 😅
The UK also has venal speculative property developers rampaging with seemingly no restrictions. Especially when laundering dodgy Russian money in the London property market.
That's a funny looking Belfast, last time I checked tower bridge wasn't in Belfast, and I didn't know that they had their own walkie talkie
But HMS Belfast was in the picture. Looks like a case of Googling Belfast and not checking the results, just chucking them in the video.
Video made in China, methinks.
But Google is blocked in China 🤪@@neuralwarp
The original, not the London based copy. Rather like Sydney Harbour Bridge and the one in either Newcastle or Middlesborough?
I have a Norman castle and Roman walls in my city of Colchester, earliest recorded city in Britain. Founded in AD43 by emperor Claudius. There many more cities equally as nice as these 10.
Surprised York wasn't on the list
They put Manchester in but left out York something sadly wrong with that.
You read my mind@@georgeallan2290
Exactly. Putting Manchester on thee list, and omitting York, Chester and few others is a bit strange.
Yeah, I was coming here to swap out Manchester for York.
As someone that grew up in the York area, I have to agree. I think it's because outsiders often forget that York is in fact a city, and not a town. Walking around the most popular areas of York doesn't really give the "city feeling"
A bit of a Southern bias, no Chester, Ripon, York or Newcastle. unbeliveable
Julie it depends on who went there. I have been to all the ones you said. I personally liked them all. Even though I was working in them. Not much time for sight seeing but still enjoyed the experience.
Southern Bias? There were only 3 places on the list that class themselves in the south! Unless you’re trying to claim Wales and Cambridge as “south”. 🙄
😂 It’s so annoying isn’t it? Even the expensive railway supposedly connecting the northern cities to the south went as far as Manchester but missed the NE out completely, l sometimes wonder if they know we exist! I know it’s only small but l love Durham too!
@@hydroankyCambridge is in the South…
As someone from Newcastle, it’s really nothing special, good vibes, nice people, but there’s not much here
I'm surprised that York wasn't on the list, I think it's gorgeous. I would have swapped it for Manchester, which is exciting and vibrant, but I'd never call it beautiful.
The reason that they all have rivers running through them is because they are old! People would have settled near a river to get water for washing and drinking. Over the years settlements joined up to become villages then towns.
Honestly I really wonder about who made the original video you watched as I've seen plenty other videos of these places and they represent these places in a much better way. I totally understand that people from the locations shown would feel miffed that there cities haven't been seen in the best way.
And many will be miffed that their cities weren't on the list at all!
Describing Inverness as "Idyllic and delightful" while showing a view of a street on a council estate, with roadworks happening on one side of it! Yep, I'm afraid the video you're reacting to is effed up, Tyler! 😂
Those fluoro witches hats were so quaint!
@@nolajoy7759 Simply enchanting! 🤣
Pretty sure that was London's Tower Bridge masquerading as being in Belfast, too!
@jamesdignanmusic2765 It was. I think they must have just done a search for photos of Belfast, and one came up of HMS Belfast by Tower Bridge!
@@andybaker2456 That makes sense. I couldn't think why it would have been there!
When they were talking about belfast they showed a picture of tower bridge in London
Probably because the museum ship HMS Belfast is moored beside it. You can see how serious they took their video.
Cambridge really is right up there (and most of the top sights there weren't shown) but the list itself was a weird one. How can you NOT inlcude York or Durham, or Stirling?
Cities in the UK evolved over centuries. Many started off as a river crossing or a gathering place could date back thousands of years. Streets are narrow because many of them like the cities are so old that cars were hundreds of years away in the future. The UK will as much as possible try to preserve its old cities. The car does not even get into the top ten when it comes to changes to city layouts. In fact, most cities are trying to keep cars out as much as possible.
They didn’t mention the Royal Crescent in Bath - it’s amazing!
Bath is always the first place I think of when these videos pop up but it’s never on there 🤣
My mistake. It’s second in this list. York and bath are my top most beautiful places in the uk
Bath is incredibly beautiful - well worth a visit!
Tyler, I truly hope you get out into the world at some point because I am just simply amazed at how little you know about seemingly anything outside of the US. And I’m not trying to be insulting but it just is unbelievable to me that you don’t know so many of these cities or anything at all about most of them especially Canterbury England I mean I would’ve thought The Canterbury tales by Chaucer would’ve come to mind when you heard the name but I guess not. I’m a U.S. American myself, btw. Have a great day!
Ancient towns were placed where the best resources were, next to the sea, rivers, woods etc.
Uhm... Birmingham!? ;-P
@@AlexanderTheEvenGreater Birmingham has it's canal network
@@Westcountrynordic True, but no rivers or coastline. And the canals were presumably built (because of the lack of natural transport links), to connect the city to the river Severn etc..
;-)
Peculiar list.
I live in Edinburgh ...but not sure those shots did our beautiful city justice!! You'll need to visit!
he didnt use good shots in most of them tbh and some where even shot in the 80s and 90s going by the cars in the shots
What's Edinburgh doing down in 8th, and behind Belfast.
I would say Lincoln England is one they missed, it has a beautiful cathedral on top of a hill next to a castle and both can be seen from almost anywhere in the city. The cathedral is also famous for being the tallest building in the world for centuries, being the first to beat the Great Pyramid of Giza. There’s so many old timey streets around that area too.
Yes, Lincoln is a beautiful city for sure, its cathedral and castle are just a small part of what the city has to offer, in the oldest part of Lincoln upon the hill top nearly every building is historic. And a river runs through the lower part of the city with many old buildings still surviving in that area also.
Agreed re Lincoln. It’s lovely.
I love Lincoln, the only City in Lincolnshire. It doesn't seem to make enough of these City lists (Maybe because it's a bit out of the way for people to travel to) but it definitely should, it's really beautiful.
@@poppletop8331 ... There are other cities in Lincolnshire such as Grantham, Spalding and Stamford. Stamford is a beautiful place to visit also as it is a very historic city with over 600 listed buildings made of limestone, a Georgian main street, and a traditional street market. Perhaps it's classed as a market town so not classed as an actual city but still a beautiful place to visit. Actually Grantham and Spalding are also classed as Market towns it seems, so I think your statement about Lincoln being the only city is correct.
None of the other places mentioned are cities, they're all towns.
I would give Bath first place but as always I’m surprised Winchester is not on the list !
We've got so many rivers in our UK cities because they were crucial for drinking water, farming & transport.
When you consider how old our cities are, it makes sense that they were built near a source of water, which would have been invaluable in times gone by.
The same can be said for some of the castles too. They were built in locations where the land was fertile & near a water source. Smaller houses were errected around the castle that consisted of the labourers who were working on the construction of the castles. A job that would take any amount of years to complete. The labourers would then end up settling in the houses after the castle's completion & so the area grew.
That wasn't always the case of course, but it did happen.
Depends on the reason for the castle - Edinburgh Castle is on top of a volcano, Stirling Castle is on a hill.
@@charlestaylor3027 - Yep. As I said, it wasn't always the case with castles, but something that happened.
Edinburgh citizen here. I do admit to taking my surroundings for granted on a daily basis. Though I do enjoy being a tour guide to friends and relatives when they visit. Lots of people tend to forget the city is a coastal city and that we do also have beaches and the sea.
I'm form Austria and did a little UK Trip before Covid. Edinburgh was my favorite City in Europe so far. IMO it beats Paris and esp. London by alot.
Fellow Edinburgher. I think the whole place, centre centre included, is in need of one big spruce up. Everywhere you look pavements, roads and lots of buildings becoming increasingly shabby and rundown looking. That, and throw in the tagging fad of the last few years and litter everywhere. But I expect my view of this town is echoed up and down the UK in other towns or maybe I'm just getting older and noticing things more.
Many folk also forget that London is a coastal city, coast defined as anywhere that has a tide or tidal river.
As a Canadian I was pretty shocked by the things they didn't show. Castle sitting on top of a volcano? Nah, why show that? Holyrood palace and Scottish parliament? Nah. Princes st with the Scott monument, train station and the gardens? Nope. No wonder it was ranked 8th (I expected it to be much higher)
Although it got a mention, Edinburgh Castle was not shown, and it is a wonderful castle in an outstanding position over the city.
For some reason the first picture they used for St David’s was the Welsh Senedd (Welsh Parliament) in Cardiff.
And 8:56 is clearly Tower Bridge in London with the HMS Belfast in the foreground which should tell you all you need to know about how they got the pictures for their video.
Yes, that Tower Bridge picture confused the hell out of me! I hadn't got around to working out the HMS Belfast explanation!
I'm pretty sure that the scene at 21:58 is actually Oxford (not Cambridge)
Yea, I clocked that, the snapshot was computer generated and it picked up Belfast.
For Belfast, they should have shown the First World War vintage cruiser, HMS Caroline, the last surviving ship that was at the battle of Jutland. And the Titanic museum, which is fantastic architecturally, as well as being a wonderful visit.
You did top UK cities a year ago and top UK towns 8 months ago. Are you going to pretend you haven't seen them before? **sigh** It covered Oxford, Cambridge, Manchester, Edinburgh, Cardiff - and you said back then you had never heard of Cardiff! It seems you never "learn" - the thing you claim you want to do. When you are growing up and hear Belfast and wonder where it is, why have you never looked at a map/atlas/globe of the world or read about it? I genuinely wonder about that - why do Americans hear these things but don't research or learn more about them as children, even if not taught at school? No curiosity or...?
If you haven’t already have a look at Reacting to my roots. Similar sort of thing but he is really interested, reads comments and then looks at subjects people have mentioned. I know what you mean about Tyler, think they also have a different meaning for shocked too, surprised maybe but they always seem shocked .
Give him a break, he isn't doing a test , he is just learning in his own time.
@@michaelprobert4014 The problem is he never learns and seems to make no effort to - not reading Comments where people explain things, not retaining repeated information. He has acted astonished at electric kettles at least four or five times this past year! I have come to the conclusion he never intends to learn, just generating clicks for $$$. As another person said to me "he is here to EARN, not to LEARN". He has several channels, each for a different country, so don't be fooled that he actually cares about the UK. In fact, he threw shade on the UK in one of his Canadian reactions. Some people think he is just trolling us when he pretends to "learn" new things or be surprised by commonplace objects, just to generate Comments - which he has done right here..lol. I feel a bit sorry for the people who put time and effort in to help him, even offering to send him things, and he never reads/responds and he doesn't actually care about whichever country he is pandering to at the time. See Tyler Bucket, Tyler Burger, Tyler Walker .... Even if you watch his videos from a year ago, you will see a different persona. Arrrgh...! I just get wound up by phonies who are conning gullible people.
Hey dude, the reason we have so much water is that before trains in the Industrial Revolution we carried goods about by man-made waterways called canals which connect every city.
I live in kent and Canterbury is 30 minutes away and always gets forgotten with the university as well
Have you ever paid your viewers the compliment of reading their comments? Your ignorance is certainly comprehensive?
York is number 1
should look up The Canterbury Tales, frame story by Geoffrey Chaucer, written in Middle English in 1387-1400.
That's an irresponsible suggestion. Tyler reacting to Chaucer would just crash UA-cam.
Your university of Harvard is also in a place called Cambridge (part of Boston). This is because Harvard was created from a bequest by an English clergyman called John Harvard (1607-1638) who was educated at Emmanuel College Cambridge University in England. His statue can be found in the grounds of Harvard Campus.
The famous university MIT is also in Cambridge Massachusetts. Arguably Cambridge Massachusetts is more important academically than the city in the English fens (and I'm British, so I don't like to admit this sort of thing).
York? Ripon? Winchester? Lincoln? Newcastle? Chester? and innumerable others
The way you said bath the first time was right , Barf is when you puke x
There are now about 4,700 miles of canals and rivers throughout the United Kingdom; 2,700 miles of these are part of the connected system.
It is a fair list, and I know it is subjective, but no way would I have Cambridge at #1. For me, I would add Salisbury, York and possibly Chester to the top 10.
I personally would've included Newcastle and York in this list, visited both and they're stunning.
I don't know Newcastle - but can't understand the omission of York at all!
Some of the "Belfast" photos were from London!! 🤦♂
I love that they stuck a picture of London’s Tower Bridge in the Belfast section, because their search engine picked up the ship in the photo, HMS Belfast
I find it funny how envious Tyler is of the castles in the UK. I live in the U.K. and see castles in nearly every city I’ve visited and while they’re spectacular we take them for granted. It’s then lost on everybody.
Look up Bristol UK
In the UK the streets are usually a lot older than vehicular transport!
_"Canterbury? Like the chocolate?"_
No, like the Cathedral. NOT Cadbury. Sigh...
Manchester??? Lol. I was born in Canterbury and it didn't show the medieval city wall which is amazing.
York missed out here should be high on the list.
Are my eyes deceiving me ?, has Tower bridge been relocated to Belfast. A confusion caused I guess by HMS Belfast in the foreground.
This list is shit: it doesn't include York, while including Manchester. It also places Cambridge above Oxford, which is absolute nonsense.
Oh, you live in the other place……
No, to be fair, you are correct. Oxford wins. But I’ll stay here anyway! 🤓
There’s nothing wrong with mentioning Oxford and Cambridge - they are beautiful cities, mainly because of their historical colleges. Though I agree, Oxford is prettier, but I’m biased as I live in Oxfordshire!
I watched this convinced York was bound to be Number 1, then...whaaaat?
react to 101 facts about wales, would love for you to learn more about it.
Missed out Newcastle, with all the bridges across the Tyne, Georgian city centre, and it has a castle.
As do cities such as York and Lincoln both having a Cathedral and a Castle and many historic buildings. I think who ever made the video had very limited knowledge of the UK.
I once visited Bath, driving down from Manchester and the 10 minute drive through the suburbs showed Bath as the scruffiest city in the U.K. True, the centre of Bath has its Georgian architecture well maintained but not in the suburbs and the main distraction for me was that you had to pay to enter the city centre public park! The roman baths are exquisite though.
I think we have green around our cities because we have something called a greenbelt where we aren't allowed to build further outwards to help nature. At least I think that's the reason, I'm not entirely sure.
Supposed to. The Conservatives have been trying to obfuscate the difference between building on green field sites and green belt sites.
Should have expanded this video to 20 or more lovely cities, with better photos. Canterbury Cathedral is in Kent. That old structure there was an ancient gate to the town. Many places still have them. The reason places were built in the first place is because of the rivers plus the castles
Notes from a Belfast native. One of the photos in the Belfast section is Tower Bridge, which is in London, but the rest of the segment was accurate. The big white building is Stormont, seat of the Northern Ireland Assembly. Belfast City Hall and Belfast Castle, both mentioned, weren't shown, but you should look them up. Other Belfast landmarks you might like to check out include Sir Thomas and Lady Dixon Park, Cave Hill and the Giant's Ring.
If you like Oxford, check out Inspector Morse, a murder mystery TV show of the 80s and 90s set in the city, or Endeavour, a more recent prequel series starring the young Morse in Oxford in the 60s and 70s.
My favourite Belfast tourist sights are HMS Caroline and the Titanic. The Big Fish by the Laggan is also great, and the view from the observation deck of the Victoria Square shopping centre is fantastic.
I know it's not a city for a town look at Rye .Rye is a town and civil parish in the Rother district of East Sussex, England, two miles (three kilometres) from the sea at the confluence of three rivers: the Rother, the Tillingham and the Brede. An important member of the mediaeval Cinque Ports confederation, it was at the head of an embayment of the English Channel, and almost entirely surrounded by the sea. With chocolate box buildings lot of buildings would fit into this category
nobody in the UK would of picked Cardiff
I would have. It’s a lovely city.
.....nor Manchester.
It’s a lovely place with a beautiful castle and a great vibe. I certainly enjoyed my time there.
@@christineharding4190leeds over manchester any day
I would put Cardiff ahead of my city Belfast lol
Bath in respect is a little rough unless you stick to the small selection of tourist spots. I would not even put it in my top 20
Hi Tyler, you appear fascinated, that there are so many waterways in England, which connect cities. Permit me to explain:
Before the advent of motorised vehicles, and smooth roads, waterways were the only means of transporting heavy goods. They were the arteries of industry. Ancient rivers, (such as the river Lea), weren’t wide enough to accommodate the huge number of barges needed, so canals were dug. Britain’s Industrial Revolution (IR) thrived only because of them.
The construction of canals enabled inland coalfields and heavy industries like pottery and metalworking to expand.
You need to check out YORK (in Yorkshire, England) .... A stunning beautiful place very rich in history, including the Vikings .... Paula x UK
This is obviously a very politically-correct list, including all the nations of the UK, but Cardiff and Belfast? Really?? I'd have thought the ancient, walled city of Derry / Londonderry has far more merit. Inverness has a nice enough setting, but Glasgow, Stirling, Dundee & Aberdeen are far more dramatic and have much more going for them - even Perth, with its medieval street layout and position on the River Tay...
I'd have placed Liverpool before Manchester I think - and Chester before both of them, I might have put Bristol before Bath and Gloucester before either - or maybe even Wells! Of the cathedral cities I'd have said that Salisbury, Winchester and Chichester are at least worthy of a mention - not to say Norwich, Ely, Lincoln aqnd Durham; and trumping even all of these is of course York. Hence my list would be something like this:
London, Edinburgh, York, Durham, Chester, Liverpool, Wells, Stirling, Gloucester, St David's, Bath, Bristol, Glasgow, Winchester, Lincoln, Norwich, Ely, Canterbury, Chichester, Derry, Dundee, Colchester, Ripon, Perth & Salisbury.
I'm amazed, Tyler has finally learned something...how to correctly pronounce Edinburgh!!
Pissing myself laughing at this video. The pictures of run down shopping streets, docks, road works and cones are hilarious. Manchester has some nice buildings but its not even pretty, never mind beautiful...and i'm a Mancunian. Oxford is gorgeous, Bath is lovely...but Cardiff? Not one i would suggested. Nothing wrong with it but top ten?
I've been to everywhere on this list, except St. David's.... Happy some places got some more exposure, but really not sure who made this list or what the criteria were, also such weird photos for most of them 😂 but really...Edinburgh should hands down have taken 1st or 2nd place!!!
Tne Canterbury Tales was required reading when i was at school or at least one of them. It was a common place for pilgrimages in England. the Author Chaucer appears in the film A knights Tale
There are 76 cities in the UK, 1,186 towns and 6,116 villages according to official figures. Each have their own characteristics and have evolved and grown over the past 2000+ years - many of which would qualify to be counted within the 'Top 10' beautiful places in the UK.
As they were located at a meeting place or location of strategic importance near rivers, on hills, by the sea, by lakes - these provided protection access, food and ease of trade. They've all evolved and changed in response to the passing centuries, responding to historic events and were already established before the industrial revolution brought railways, industry and major road infrastructure and petrol vehicles. We value our building and lands as they are interwoven with our culture, our history which still lives as part of our national identity and who we are.
Don't forget the American Museum & Gardens just outside of Bath
Just to be clear, everyone in Yorkshire is going to be furious about this list...
As well as everyone outside of Yorkshire! 😮
Living in Nottingham . We are close to many stately homes and historic places , One 1500s stately home in a large parkland , with a lake , and deer herd . The old stables house an industrial museum and cafe . The main house is now a natural history museum . Looking out of my window , i can see woodland . We have roads lined with trees. A main river , smaller rivers and canals . Just up the road from us , is Newstead Abbey . Historic home of Lord Byron . Also close to us is Sherwood Forest . Think Robin Hood .
I'd take out a few of those. York and Winchester should be in over Cardiff and Belfast. Maybe put Salisbury in. Also there's way more beautiful cities in the north than Manchester!
This video is awful. Some of the photos look like the sort you might take on your iPhone and delete because they are shyte. Tower bridge In Belfast 😂😂😂😂. They are talking about the beauty of the city whilst showing industrial or retail pictures
As a resident of the north east of England it’s a travesty that neither Durham city nor the city of York are on this list! Typical of the divide, I guess 🤷🏻♀️
Dont get confused by English dialect, in the South of England, they seem to put an r in words that don't have one, like Barth and pars. In the North we speak like the rest of the world ie, Bath and Pass.
As a child, both my parents worked for British Rail. As part of their wages they got free rail travel around Great Britain. We went everywhere when i was a child. Steam trains to Scotland over the Glenfinnian Viaduct and all the way to Inverness. Carriages like on Harry Potter where you get in to the carriage from the platform!
Great Britain is amazing. Try watching anything by Sir David Attenborough!
I grew up in York. The original capital city in the UK. Stunning city with castles, York Minster, the Roman Walls, Roman architecture, cobbled streets, Wipma Wopma Gate! Betty's Tea Rooms, Barnet's (York's own Amazon), and Clifford's Tower!
Manchester is getting to look more American every day. The amount of skyscrapers going up has coined a new nickname for the place. - Manchatton.
I’m Sorry To Say This Was Absolute Rubbish , Photos Of Places That Were Not In The Correct Cities !
Why is York missing? Much better than most of these. Manchester you're joking!
Cities need water.
Manchester more beautiful than Inverness and Edinburgh? 🤣🤣🤣
The narration on the video sounds a bit dodgy, odd phrasing. Sounds AI generated. Therefore take what it says with a pinch of salt .
Manchester is associated with football ⚽️ that made me laugh because so is everywhere you go in england 😂
You didn't read Canterbury Tales in school?
He's American - who would he?
When did Tower Bridge from LONDON,get moved to Belfast?
🤔
Oxford is also home to the Mini motor car - it was invented here!
A picture of Tower Bridge in London to accompany descriptions of Belfast?
This is where googling images lets content creators down. The ship in the Tower Bridge picture is the HMS Belfast.
HMS Belfast is not Belfast City lol, and the river Lagan is not pronounced lay-gone, it’s lag-inn. I’m guessing the video is AI generated
In The UK, the furthest point from the Sea is just 72 miles:)
OXFORD is made up of 31 Colleges forming ONE University and CAMBRIDGE is made up of 31 Colleges making ONE University.
Whoever did this list messed up because york and Liverpool should have been on the list
I'm from Belfast, and I'm very surprised it was on this list.
Who knew Tower Bridge had been taken out of London and set up in Belfast lol. As commented by others, yeah it looks like the image containing HMS Belfast threw it back and the commentator doesn't know any better. The picture two back from that is also London docklands and not Belfast and you can clearly see the Fenchurch (Walkie Talkie) Building in the background. Calling the River Lagan "Lagon" was also a bit odd. I'm sure anyone from Dublin would also be surprised to hear that Belfast is apparently the capital of Ireland!
Just have to say. . . Tower Bridge is NOT in Belfast!! 🤣
They did NOT put Manchester ahead of Edinburgh 😮
I’m welsh and wouldn’t have Cardiff in there. Chester and / or York should be in there as well
St Asaph is probably the most beautiful city in Wales, with Bangor in the most beautiful setting.
@@lesleyfarrington4809 Went to school in St Asaph, I agree
The structure/building you wondered why you can drive through is a gate, all cities and big towns were surrounded by walls with gates, many gates still exist many don’t. In my city they were demolished two hundred years or so ago, but a neighbouring town still has one you drive through and still has attached properties either side one I’ve been in as it is a solicitors office.
Lovely places in the UK but Cardiff is not one of them.
This must be an AI generated video. It’s mostly nonsense.
What was Tower Bridge doing in belfast or are my eyes going !
What about York which also deserves a mention?
Stirling is way more beautiful than most of the cities on this list.
York, Wells and Sterling are definitely missing!
I’d choose Belfast out of all of these and I’m English
I Work in Canterbury , and you never see Canterbury in lists. Ancient is the word and very walkable. An Archbishop of Canterbury was dragged through the town by the Viking’s when they sacked it.
Same as Lincoln, who's Cathedral was once the tallest building in the world, became the worlds tallest building in 1311 beating the great Pyramid of Giza, and remained the worlds tallest building until its central spire collapsed in 1548. The central spire was never rebuilt so the record was lost that had been held for 238 years. There is also a castle at Lincoln just a short walk away from the Cathedral, and many other historical buildings.
