The forest of Bowland has often been described as the Switzerland of England and with good reason, its stunning rolling hills and green landscape provide for the perfect outdoor escape. One of the main attractions here is of course hiking and there are few better areas to do so than from the village of Slaidburn. Taking a walk here along the well maintained footpaths takes you alongside the crystal clear River Hodder and up into meadows that are full of wildflowers during the summer months with views across the surrounding. A short but challenging hike, it’s well worth the stop. #cityplaybook #hiking #lancashire #countryside

The Cotswolds are a range of hills in southwestern and central England, known for their picturesque villages, rolling hills, and historic sites. The area is characterized by its charming villages built from honey-colored limestone. The Cotswolds are also home to several historic sites, including Sudeley Castle, Snowshill Manor and Garden, and Chedworth Roman Villa. The Cotswolds are a popular tourist destination, offering a variety of activities such as hiking, cycling, and horseback riding. The area is also known for its many traditional pubs and restaurants, serving locally sourced food and drink. 🐟Fish and chips are a must-try in the area. 🚗*renting a car is required for this road trip: We took 1 day 1 night around the countryside to explore Cotswold, starting with a night visit to 📍castle combe (picture 2). Embrace the serenity of the small and quiet town. Spend the night around the area, and I recommend Cirencester for a peaceful and quiet night, before heading out the next day to 📍Bibury (picture 3). Visit 📍lower slaughter (pictures 1 and 6) to see the old mill (picture 1), and even engage in activities such as horse riding down the ancient town (picture 6). 📍Bourton-on-the-water (picture 4 and 5) is a serene small town where you can enjoy the beautiful views and stroll through the shophouses to thrift. 📍Broadway tower (last 2 pictures) is a lone standing castle built on a vast land of green hills. A must visit if you want a taste of the old England countryside. #ancienttownvibes #cotswold #cotswoldsmagic #countryside #oldtown #nature #hiking #horseriding #uk

#newyearnewtrip #russia #attraction #Travelmode #countryside #culture A visit to Sergiyev Posad is like stepping into a chapter of Russian history and faith. Starting from the magnificent Komsomolskaya Station, with its grand mosaics and chandeliers, I took a train from Yaroslavsky Railway Station (ticket: 278 rubles) for a scenic 1.5-hour ride through countryside. At the heart of the town lies the Trinity Lavra of St. Sergius, the pinnacle of Russian Orthodoxy. Its gilded domes and vibrant blue spires stood tall against the crisp sky, a sight both humbling and awe-inspiring. Inside, centuries-old frescoes and sacred relics radiated a quiet reverence that left me captivated. Beyond the monastery, the town exuded a rustic charm. Quaint cafés served traditional Russian delicacies, and local shops offered beautiful handcrafted souvenirs. Sergiyev Posad is more than just a day trip—it’s an immersive experience of Russia’s spiritual and cultural essence.

Winter in Hongcun is the way if your after a relaxing experience, all the other seasons of the year are too crowded.

When most people think about cherry blossoms, Japan or Korea come to mind. However England spring time is just as magical! 🌸🌷🇬🇧 Just an hour drive or train from central London, Savil gardens in Virginia waters makes you feel as though you are Alice in Wonderland! 🐇♥️ Park in the car park or arrive from Virgina water train station 🚉, Savil gardens is easily accessible with toilets and picnic tables. It is a huge park, close to Windsor great park (home to the royal Windsor castle 🏰 and Eton college) so it can be made into a full day out easily. Throughout the gardens you can find lovely views and little paths covered in fallen petals, so white it looks like snow! It’s never been busy so there are lots of perfect photo opportunities where you don’t feel pressured to move. All outdoors so you don’t need to wear a mask. I love the feeling of magic and seclusion here, it’s one of my favourite places to visit in the spring time (and you don’t have to pay to enter!) You can enter from the main carpark or I like to walk in past the Bailiwick pub and head straight to the lake, past the polo fields on the right hand side. Part of the fun is exploring it for yourself! Tips from a local: 🌸Bring a picnic 🧺 🌸Visit Windsor or Ascot at the same time 🏇 🌸Come in spring for the blossoms 🌸Enjoy English food at the Bailiwick pub or eat at the Savil gardens restaurant 🍴 🌸Although there are proper paths, wear comfortable shoes so you can explore more! 👟 🌸Unlike many other attractions you don’t have to arrive super early to avoid crowds 🌸Open from 9am to 6pm every day #cherryblossom2024 #Photoready #Flowers #mytravelhacks #familytrip #localguides #England #countryside #Beautiful #Free entry#London #Noque #Nature #Dogs welcome #Spring #Picnic #windsorpark #windsorcastle #Virginiawater #cute #Japan #Korea #Flowers

Hardy’s Monument can been seen from swathes of southern England, but only when you walk up to it can you truly appreciate the magnificent outlook that is possesses over the surrounding countryside. On a clear day you can see across multiple counties, and if you are lucky you can distinguish many ancient burial barrows and Iron Age fortifications, while now lie smothered in grass.#Hardy #view #hiking #england #countryside

It’s a nice experience with nature and animals. The milk, dairy products such as cheese is so good and fresh at the shop in Mother’s farm. It’s located on the top of the hill, so you should avoid some windy weathering day.

One of the best places to get a true feel for the area is the short walk along the ridge of Longridge Fell.

The forest of Bowland is one of England’s most unspoiled and beautiful areas and one that very little visitors to the country know much about. Amongst the rolling hills and valleys here you will also find and abundance of picture postcard villages to relax, explore and possibly eat and drink in between exploring the great outdoors. Set on the River Hodder the village of Slaidburn is possibly the perfect spot for that with its traditional houses, village hall and of course pub providing the perfect stopping off point. #cityplaybook #village #countryside #lancashire
