Town reporter, Chester
Chester is the embodiment of "typical England", with Victorian architecture, wooden houses, lovely cobbled streets, large parks and moss-covered ancient walls. It looks like it came straight out of the novels of the famous writer Charles Dickens. The taverns, hotels, and even small shops on the street retain the charm of many years ago, and the original painting is authentic. I was particularly interested in the small house with brick walls, wooden facades and lovely glass doors.
