York
A medieval wall you can walk the full circuit of above the rooftops, a Gothic minster with stained glass surviving from the Middle Ages, and narrow shambles streets built so tightly the upper floors nearly touch.
The best time to visit York is Apr–Jun, Sep–Oct, when typical daytime highs reach about 13°C (55°F). Local time there is 11:54 (UTC+1).
