Photos: English Midlands
An area as broad as the English Midlands is naturally going to feature a bit of everything. The area’s churches and cathedrals frequently find themselves in my viewfinder due to their elaborate, soaring architecture. The charming cities and towns surrounded by idyllic landscapes represent the image a lot of foreigners seem to have about England: rolling, green hills and cute, old, little towns overflowing with character.
