Wake up in the morning and have breakfast in the hotel. We set off for Manchester, the third largest city in Britain. First, we visited the exterior of Old Trafford Stadium, which is the home of Premier League powerhouse Manchester United. Don't forget to count on the ground in front of the stadium and find the signature of your favorite Manchester United star.

Then we went to downtown Manchester, visited the Gothic City Hall in Albert Square, and visited China Street in Manchester, the tall archway in Ming and Qing Dynasties, China restaurants and Chinese signboards everywhere. Dear, you can find the kindness of returning to your hometown in an instant!

Continue to move forward at noon, and in the afternoon, come to the lake area, which is known as one of the "50 must-see places in life". We will watch Windermere Lake, the largest and most beautiful lake in the lake area, stop by the lake to watch the royal swan swim leisurely, look up at the holy white pigeons flying around us, or take a walk by the lake to bask in the afternoon sunshine in Britain and enjoy the elegant life in Britain.

In the evening, we reluctantly bid farewell to the lake area, and we went straight to Scotland to check into a hotel. There will be a more wonderful journey waiting for you tomorrow!

the third day

Edinburgh Full Day Tour (Edinburgh)-St. Andrews (optional: Scottish Cultural Depth Tour)

Today we will visit Edinburgh, the capital of Scotland. Edinburgh Castle is one of the most famous castles in Europe. It is the symbol and the highest point of the whole city. It symbolizes the majestic castle and has witnessed countless grievances and sorrows. Don't forget to take a walk in the castle, overlook the whole city, feel the noblest royal atmosphere and touch the things in the castle-Mungo cannon. Every year on New Year's Eve, several Mungo cannons in the castle will set off fireworks and welcome tourists from all over the world to celebrate the festival. The scene is quite spectacular.

To the east of the castle is the famous Royal Mile Avenue, which is the soul of Edinburgh's history and culture and a rare Scottish souvenir paradise. Authentic Scottish biscuits, whisky or distinctive plaid scarves are all good choices.

Parallel to the Royal Avenue is the famous Prince Street. If you are interested, you can also climb Carlton Hill at the end of Prince Street and overlook the whole Edinburgh with a colonnade full of Greek heritage. The sound of bagpipes comes with the wind, and a sense of vicissitudes is beyond words. After lunch, you can continue to stroll in the streets of Edinburgh, try to find the elephant cafe where Ms. Roman Rowling wrote the first Harry Potter and enjoy an elegant English afternoon tea.

Of course, you can also take part in the in-depth tour of Scottish culture at your own expense *: go to St. Andrews, the birthplace of golf in the world, and pass the Foss Railway Bridge, the oldest steel building in the world, which is a typical Scottish field scenery. There are the oldest golf courses, charming sea views, and the university town where the century fairy tale master Prince William and Princess Kate fell in love and made lifelong vows.

In the light orange afternoon sunshine, I walked along the most beautiful seaside in beautiful Scotland, and sometimes I heard warm cheers shouting the grand event, and sometimes I could catch whispers between lovers. After a whole day's sightseeing, I returned to the hotel and tasted the dignity and vitality of Edinburgh in a comfortable environment.

The fourth day

Scottish Highlands-Loch Lomond-Canyon-Fort William-Ben Nevis Pass-Loch Ness

Today we will come to the end of the world, the Scottish Highlands. This is the last stronghold of the ice age and an elusive paradise resort. "On your beautiful lake and your beautiful hillside, the sun shines brightly on Lake Lomond, and my beloved girl and I have been reluctant to leave for a long time." Once upon a time, a knight sang this touching song and sent a call of love to his beloved girl by the lake, which brought us to the charming and quiet Lake Lomond.

Along the road to the north, we will see Buchaille Etive Mor, the main peak of Glencoe, which stands on the wasteland engraved with vicissitudes and ancient times, just like the pyramids in the Egyptian desert. The lingering clouds and lavender hyacinthus orientalis add a bit of serenity and elegance.

From the mountain pass to the north, pass the famous mountaineering base Williamsburg along the way and stop at a nearby rest stop or outdoor base. You can stroll along the path of the virgin forest, or take the highland cable car *, watch the unique lakes and mountains in the Scottish Highlands at a height of 360 degrees, and enjoy the extraordinary experience of walking through the valley.

Further north, we will soon reach the beautiful and mysterious Loch Ness, where it will not freeze all year round. The story of the water monster adds more mystery to the lake. You can stroll in the warm town at the source of Loch Ness, have a cup of coffee and have lunch. If you want to explore the scenery of Loch Ness and look for the footprints of the monster, then don't miss the Loch Ness adventure cruise ship *, and you should take care of your own tickets.

In the evening, we took a group photo at the foot of Ben Nevis, the highest peak in Scotland, and felt the perfect interpretation of the magnificent mountains and rivers. Then we left the Scottish Highlands, bid farewell to the beautiful natural wonders and went to the hotel.

Fifth day

Glasgow, a romantic wedding town on the Scottish border, is back to square one.

The last day has arrived. Before you leave Scotland, don't forget to visit Glasgow, Scotland's largest city, and feel its unique urban charm.

Glasgow, located on the Clyde River, is a "city of British architecture and design", a typical representative city of "european capital of culture" and "Scottish style", and also one of the football venues for the 20 12 London Olympic Games. Charles Renee Macintosh, a world-class artist, was born here, and his artistic achievements spread all over the city. The ancient Glasgow Academy of Fine Arts and the elegant and comfortable Willow Tea Room all have his masterpieces.

Located around George Square in the city center, the city hall and buildings are resplendent and refreshing, which has won the reputation of "open-air museum" for Glasgow, favored by many Hollywood blockbusters and accepted as location shooting. There are many statues of Scottish celebrities around the square, such as Jim Watt, who invented the steam engine, and Bonn, a famous Scottish poet. I look forward to taking a photo with you! Under the influence of such a strong literary atmosphere, it is better to have a cup of fragrant coffee and stroll through the magnificent buildings in Glasgow to find and taste the unique design achievements of world-class architects.

After a hearty tour, we "eloped" together to Gretna Green, an internationally famous escape town on the border between Scotland and England, to listen to the touching stories of hundreds of years, explore the indissoluble bond with the lovers here, knock on the door of the blacksmith's shop and ask it to testify for love again!

We must bid farewell to Scotland before sunset. Goodbye Scotland, let the highlands and bagpipes witness your footprints, and let the romantic experience become your eternal memory!

Second, scenic spots

Chinatown

The area surrounded by Charlotte Street, Portland Street, Oxford Street and Mosley Street is Manchester Chinatown, which is the largest Chinatown in Britain and the most concentrated community of Chinese in northern England. Chinatown was gradually formed in the 1970s when cotton warehouses in this area were redeveloped. Every Sunday, the supermarkets, Chinese medicine shops and restaurants here are very lively. China Spring Festival lion dance performance is an annual grand show in Manchester.

Luo Li Art Center

The most beautiful city scenery in Manchester is actually at salford Pier. Salford Pier was once the canal pier in Manchester. It boldly reflects the passion of contemporary architecture for sharp steel and glass fragments. Raleigh Art Center has theaters, galleries and shops, which is a modern tribute to industrial architecture. The theaters, galleries, exhibition halls, shops, restaurants and bars of Raleigh Art Center enrich the cultural life of the city, and also reflect Manchester's unremitting pursuit of creation and art. Raleigh Art Center is 0/0 minutes' drive from the city center/kloc-0. You can take the tram first and then walk there. This building is dedicated to salford's eldest son, L.S. Lori, a famous painter with the theme of industry and labor. The collection of Lori's works here is the highest in the world and the main collection of the center; Lori's main works in Manchester were collected in salford Art Museum.

Adele center

Ironically, the Irish Peace Corps chose Adel Center, the ugliest building in Manchester, as their bombing target. Adel Center is a classic case of urban planning mistakes in 1950s and 1960s. A lot of alleys, shops and buildings were knocked down to build this lifeless super-large shopping center. The outer wall brick in the center is too bright, which is a great failure of design. The building is like a toilet transformed by Fauvism. The explosion of 1996 destroyed a large area of Manchester City, not only the center of Adel, but also the Grain Exchange, Royal Exchange, LongridgeHouse and the original MarksSpencer.

Stratford Manchester

From Manchester, 90 kilometers south, you can reach Stratford, Shakespeare's hometown. Stratford, located between Manchester and Oxford, is a typical ancient town in southern England. Looking at the ancient town from a distance, there is a dark green island on the rolling green Yuan Ye. On the background of thick green, the steep roof connected far and near is crimson with old wine. Bright and full of profound internal information. Perhaps this is Shakespeare's great reputation. This small town, which has created wizards throughout the ages, has a strong sense of mystery in the eyes of outsiders. Looking for the quiet Bulun River, stepping into the town is like walking into an ancient fairy tale. The ancient town of Fiona Fang is less than two kilometers, and the banks of the Bulun River, which passes through the town, are shaded by trees. The ancient houses with a long history seem to be arranged by generations from the shore. The steep and heavy Victorian architecture, the beautiful and fantastic Gothic architecture, and the rugged and quaint ordinary houses with a long history write the historical vicissitudes of the ancient town, and the arch bridge left over from the Middle Ages on the Bulun River should be an older witness of the town. At the foot, the Bulun River flows quietly, and flocks of swans and wild ducks chase and play in the river. The church bells rang and rippled across the river, conveying melodious silence to people's hearts. The "Holy Trinity" church near the river was built during the Renaissance. This is the most magnificent building in town, and its appearance is covered with a thick layer of moss. Shakespeare's grave is buried in the church. The first thing tourists do when they come to town is to visit the old man Shakespeare in church. Shakespeare's tomb is a square platform made of white marble, which is high enough for people, and Shakespeare's body is buried under the platform. As many people patronize the church every day, it is forbidden to take pictures in the church. But Peter, the staff, took special care of the guests in China and authorized us to take a photo with Shakespeare. Peter said that he had just returned from a trip to China. China is an ancient oriental civilization. In China, Shakespeare is almost a household name. As a native of Shakespeare, Peter is proud. There are some great writers in the history of world literature. Because they were not valued during their lifetime, their biographical materials were very limited. This is the case with Cao Xueqin and Shakespeare. Talking about Shakespeare with his hometown people is more interesting than learning from the media. In Peter's view, this holy land nourished by the Burun River is bound to have immortal figures like Shakespeare. It is said that Shakespeare showed outstanding literary talent when he was a teenager. He read widely, loved drama, and told stories to his friends by the Boulogne River, which fascinated everyone. At the age of thirteen, his father went bankrupt and Shakespeare dropped out of school. When he was young, Shakespeare walked out of town along the boulogne River and went to London to make a living. He used to lead horses for the rich who went in and out of the theater and worked as a walk-on actor in the troupe. The brilliant Shakespeare started his own drama creation in a bad environment. He married a middle-class Mary, and his wife provided financial support for his writing, so that he would not be as poor as Cao Xueqin. In more than 20 years, Shakespeare wrote 32 plays and 154 sonnets, becoming the greatest writer in Renaissance Europe. However, at that time, he was not valued by people. At the age of 46, Shakespeare said goodbye to the theatre. Due to the hardships of creation, Shakespeare was physically and mentally haggard and died at the age of 52 on the Bloom River. Shakespeare was unknown before his death, and it was more than a century after his death that his immortal plays spread to the world. After the May 4th Movement, Shakespeare's name became a household name in China. The more immortal a work is, the more it needs to stand the test of time. Everyone may not get an immediate return, and it won't help if someone regrets for them later. At present, in Britain, some people actually question whether Shakespeare's immortal plays were written by Shakespeare, and it is hard to refute Shakespeare in the grave. Shakespeare's hometown people scoffed at this, showing their love for Shakespeare. Shakespeare's former residence is located in the center of the town, just a stone's throw from the Boulogne River. An old two-story wooden building, facing south and facing the street. There is an iron sign hanging on the gatehouse, indicating the age of the building as 153 1. Walking into the house, I entered Shakespeare's life. The first floor is the living room and kitchen. The fire in the fireplace is still dark red. There are bread, steak, knives and forks on the dining table. Coffee pots and cups are a little rough. All these convey classical warmth to tourists. The second floor is used as a bedroom and study. There is a wax figure of Shakespeare in the study, and there are many stationery piles in the pencil box in front of it. Shakespeare leaned back in his chair and thought hard. All great artistic creation comes from loneliness and loneliness. Many of Shakespeare's great works were completed in this study.

albert square

Albert Square was named in memory of Queen Victoria's husband Albert. Located between Dinsgate and Mosley Street, the square is the heart of the city. The most distinctive sign in the square is a Gothic building built in Victorian era. John Barry Rand Library in Dinsgate Street on the west side of the square has Victorian Goethe-style buildings. Further west, the People's History Museum of Pumphouse is located by the Hivert River. The theme of the exhibition is social history and the workers' movement. To the south of the square is St. Peter's Square, and the free trade union club next to it is the place where the oil massacre occurred in 18 19, which has been converted into a hotel. Further south is the former Central Station, and now it is the G-Mex Exhibition and Conference Center. The angular postmodern building overlooking G-Mex is bridgewater Concert Hall, and the Adel Center of the famous Harley Orchestra Adel was destroyed by the explosion at 1996. The Grain Exchange, the Royal Exchange, the Lonrich Building and the original Martha Building were also damaged. After reconstruction, the world's largest Martha Tower replaced the original building, the Royal Exchange and the Grain Exchange have been renovated, and two historic bars have also moved to the new Chapos Square next to the cathedral. The Cathedral and Saint Anne Square have become pedestrian areas.

Casterfield City Heritage Park

Kaiserfield city ruins park, a Roman castle built in 79 AD, can be said to be the father of Manchester. This castle is located in Kaiserfield, the cradle of the industrial revolution. Kaiserfield still retains the dilapidated elevated railway, rusty iron bridge and huge warehouse, which is shocking. In the1980s, it was transformed into the present urban heritage park. The Museum of Science and Industry is a major feature of Kaiserfield, where there are complete steam engines and spinning machines, and the railway station in the1830s is still preserved. The rebuilt Roman fortress is worth a visit.

Chinatown

The area surrounded by Charlotte Street, Portland Street, Oxford Street and Mosley Street is Manchester Chinatown, which is the largest Chinatown in Britain and the most concentrated community of Chinese in northern England. There are many small shops selling porcelain decorations. In addition, in China, China restaurants can be found everywhere, and the cost of these restaurants is also high. In China, there are many small supermarkets run by China people, so you don't have to worry about finding China condiments and food. They are all real food, starch, soy sauce, kitchen knife and steamer shipped from China. You can find many products unique to China here, and many international students living in the towns around Manchester will often come here to purchase. The lion dance during the Spring Festival in China is an annual grand performance in Manchester.
