The Grand York

York Minster

It is necessary to go there. It is indeed very historic. It is free for those under 17 years old. Students over 18 years old can buy student tickets. It is better to make an appointment one day in advance. We made an appointment when we arrived and found that we could enter more than an hour later. At that time, a certain pig was cheaper, but it was later, so we chose Ctrip to place an order. It is necessary to make an appointment one day in advance.

It takes about five minutes to walk from York Station to platform 11, cross the overpass, and there is a sign, which is easy to see. There were not many people, so I went in without an appointment. There were many local elderly people and children, but they watched quietly.
The history of trains is clear at a glance, and I learned a lot. Half of the confidence of European railways comes from Britain. The trains and train technology more than 150 years ago are really admirable.
