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 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.
Norfolk is a firm favourite with families because of traditional
seaside resorts such as Great
Yarmouth, Hunstanton,
Wells, Sheringham
and Cromer, all with
excellent beaches and entertainment.
Norfolk has many historic
houses and museums
and over 650 medieval churches, which is more than any other county
in England. There are art galleries, country
parks, steam railways and bird
reserves, and pedestrianised shopping centres in Norwich,
Great Yarmouth
and King's Lynn.
Norfolk has something for everybody. If you are looking for somewhere
to relax, or somewhere to explore, you will not be disappointed
when you visit the beautiful county of Norfolk.
