Photos: Southeastern England
In southeastern England, it’s often easy to forget how close you are to the enormous London metropolis. The rolling green hills of this classic English countryside are populated by impressive castles and medieval towns. It’s only that endless stream of giant lorries speeding along the main roads to and from the ferry at Dover that break the spell of the ‘Garden of England.’
The white cliffs of Dover starkly mark the barrier between the UK and the rest of Europe and the castles of the region remind you that the countryside may not have always been so calm. Giant cathedrals soar over charming towns and traditional pubs welcome you inside when your weary feet have had enough exploring for one day.
