Chinatown ExpressKken_travelThis is a very good street, close to the Newcastle football team's main venue St James'' Park and a large proportion of Chinese students newcastle business college, and near the city center monument. Some Chinese supermarket goods in the block cannot be bought elsewhere, and the business is very good. Some restaurants have to take the elevator directly upstairs to eat, it is rare here, it can be seen that the commercial density here is larger than the surrounding area. There is also a Chinese medicine museum. The most conspicuous is the city wall, which was left by a large lead pigment factory before.
Newcastle Castle3300***74From Durham by car north, to Newcastle, compared to Durham Village, Newcastle is a big city, at Durham Railway Station, I also saw several students who went to Newcastle to eat, the train arrived in about ten minutes. Here I actually saw the wall, the Great Wall of Hadrian, in fact, this is the northernmost border of the Roman Empire's British province, and there is a similar work with China's wall, which is to defend against the northern invasion. Along the Tyne River from west to east is the entrance to the sea. The King of England built castles, made of wooden spires and earthen exterior walls. The new castle is the source of Newcastle's name.
Newcastle CathedralMM32***23St Nicholas Cathedral The cathedral is beautiful and shocking. I happened to meet the choir singing, very beautiful harmony, echoing in the church for a long time, sacred and solemn! It is worth to experience carefully...
Gateshead Millennium BridgeKken_travelI didn't see it last time. This time I rushed early to see the Millennium Bridge rise. Although I gave a weekly timetable for the daily Millennium Bridge rise, it may also be adjusted, and it will be early today. The whole bridge is lifted and put down for about15-20 minutes. There are broadcast instructions before and after, and there are also ships responsible for safety on the water. During the process of rising and falling, no boats passed.
Central StationBBio____manA station with classical architecture and pleasant atmosphere! I was with my bike and I face no inconvenience travelling with it. The staff was nice and guided me to load my bike on the train.
Leazes ParkKken_travelFree. 1. General park is forbidden to feed animals, here staff told me that this park is mainly to feed swans (be careful, it is specially made for feed, and he was bruised by swan several times, fortunately he found it accidental and interesting). There were swans, geese, ducks, pigeons, his explanations made me know the swans, and told me that at most there were six or seven swans, and swans did not migrate, and sometimes at night the swans would be dragged away by wild dogs, so... Now there is only one male, one female, two big swans, and one small swan. I have always heard that the UK prohibits fishing, and I saw many people fishing in this small lake for the first time here. Do I know that they have permission? 3. This park has lakes, green spaces, basketball courts, tennis courts, mazes, small gardens, play area, etc. It is the most rich design in several parks I have ever seen. 4. There is also a farm, you can contact cattle from 0 distance, but don't mess with them, you are responsible for the accident! Most importantly, there are three urgent needs, please go to the public toilet in that cafe.
