Discovering
Norfolk, Norfolk Broads, North Norfolk, Broadland,
Breckland, towns and villages
|
Norfolk has a spectacular coastline,
with long sandy beaches, high cliffs, sand dunes,
flint pebble banks and salt marshes. It is also
well known for the Norfolk Broads,
an extensive waterway that can be fully explored
by boat. There are many towns and villages within
Norfolk, all with their own individual
characters. The port of King's Lynn
has a long trading history, and today it still
has large trade links with the rest of Europe.
The Norfolk Broads are thought
to have been created by the flooding of ancient
peat diggings. They consist of large expanses
of water, long meandering rivers and smaller lakes
and dykes and are unique throughout Britain....
