If you are visiting London, a little day trip to Canterbury is always a good idea. Accessible by train and by car, there is no shortage of options to get here. Canterbury Cathedral is the center of any trip to Canterbury. Originating in the 11th century, this 'Mother Church' is still functional, so do check for closures for services on the day that you visit it. The town also has other beautiful old buildings such as the Westgate Towers, the Eastbridge Hospital and the ruins of St. Augustine's Abbey. Canterbury's central street, the Queen's Mile is also a hub for unique shopping experiences, with high-end jewelry as well as small handmade trinkets. You can also catch a world-class show at the Marlowe Theatre or The Gulbenkian. The town also offers an endless spread of different cuisines as well as cocktail experiences. If you are a literature lover, stop at The Canterbury Tales exhibition for an interactive experience about Jeffery Chaucer's stories of the same name. You can also combine your visit to Canterbury with the Leeds Castle and White Cliffs of Dover, both of which are close by.
