What travellers say about York
随风入梦喵26 February 2026

Well worth a visit. The exterior features a newly built sculpture of Queen Elizabeth, while the interior boasts a distinctive collection of sculptures of past British monarchs. Admission is free for those under 17, and guided tours are available at set times. The stained-glass windows are beautiful. After your visit, you can stroll along the ancient city walls, which are both historically poignant and interwoven with the daily lives of local residents – a truly unique experience.

I heard that Shambles Street is a good place to visit, and when I actually went there, there were a lot of shops to visit, so it was nice! I heard that it is famous for its ghost shops, but there was a long line in front, so I couldn't go in.

York Dungeon was the last place on our one-day tour of York. It was similar to an immersive escape room with NPCs. The actors in it performed very hard and interacted with you. They made all kinds of eye contact and the scene design was realistic. In short, it was a good experience.

The ruins of the monastery stand alone on the cliff. When Bram Stoker saw it, it must have been in such a dilapidated state, gazing at the northern coastline. The towering columns and famous rib arches are majestic and profound, silently telling us what happened in the past.

My first time visiting this tower ,all the staff was extremely friendly and helpful .We really enjoyed visiting this beautiful piece of history and we adore york. Was so happy to know it is english heritage so everytime we go somewhere we try and make use out of our membership.Was a wonderful structure been made for the stairs nice and strong. We enjoyed the roof top being able to have a clear 360 view was magnificent well worth all the climbing up both stairs .

There is a round arched entrance at the city gate that says York Wall 🏰 Entrance, there is no charge.
The city wall is centered on York Cathedral ⛪️, we spent about 1 hour around the city wall, and after going up to the end to walk back down, requires a little physical strength 💪🏻, if there are young children with you have to think Clear.
The road along the city wall is slightly narrow. If you are facing someone, you have to give way before you can continue🥲. But the view from the city wall is beautiful✨, looking inside is more beautiful like a fairy tale🌷.
The walls of York, which have existed since Roman times, are still quite intact.

The memory of Jinan's old railway station is in the Jiaoji Railway Museum, but few people know about it. The museum is really worth a visit. There are many real objects after the old railway station was demolished on the top floor.

A must-visit when visiting York. The Time Warp ride takes you back to the early days of a Viking settlement where you can smell the food, hear the talking and the singing and feel the vibes.
