England is a mighty country for being a small island off the coast of the mass European continent. Showing it’s power through trade and commerce, England’s home to some of the richest cities in the world, making them known for their architecture, history, and of course, a splendid nightlife. Don’t know what city you want to have have your gap year in England? Here are some tips to help you narrow it down.
London. Soooo.. Tell me what you want, whatcha really, really want? Oh wait, we know. It’s a gap year in London! Live in one of the world’s largest cities and never sit on your bum bored out of your mind. You could be a tourist everyday on your gap year in London and you’ll always have sights to see. Check out the Tower of London, where the Royal Crown Jewel are hosted. Or walk up to the top of St. Paul’s Cathedral and gain a glimpse of London from the very top of the dome.
Manchester. Are you a dedicated follower of the magnificent Manchester United (soccer) football team? Ok, at least you’ve heard of the beautiful retired star of the team, David Beckham? Talk about a dashing young man. Manchester is popular for its soccer team and is known globally for their high performance. Not to mention, they are the location for the National Football Museum. What a time to be alive. If you’re a sport lover at heart, Manchester is the city for you.
Liverpool. Home of the famous city where the Unsinkable Titanic set sail in 1912, Liverpool has been a port city bringing in a variety of newcomers—perfect for your British gap year. Visit Albert’s Dock and take a stroll during a warm summer day to watch the ships sail out into the ocean. Or, if you’re obsessed with The Beatles, head down Penny Lane and Come Together with all of your fellow gappers to visit The Beatles Story Museum. Hey Jude, you seriously don’t wanna miss it on your gap year in England.
