Wales boasts the Snowdonia National Park, one of the scenic highlights in Britain, and showcases high mountain passes and deep valleys. The Welsh language is proudly displayed on the road signs, and makes for tongue twisting interpretations. Castles from Norman and Medieval times and visits to underground mines are major attractions in this region.

England North Country is home to the industrialised heart of the country. Cities like Leeds, Manchester, Liverpool, and Newcastle are noted for their passion for football, and vibrant city centres. The rugged and bleak Pennine Mountain moors are the backbone of this area, and inspired many tragic and romantic writers like the Bronte sisters. The Lake District is another stunningly beautiful mountainous region in Cumbria associated with other writers like Wordsworth and Beatrice Potter.
