Student Accommodation in York
York is a walled city in northeast England that was founded by the ancient Romans. Its huge 13th-century Gothic cathedral, York Minster, has medieval stained glass and 2 functioning bell towers. The City Walls form a walkway on both sides of the River Ouse. The Monk Bar gate houses an exhibition tracing the life of 15th-century Plantagenet King Richard III. The 13th-century York City Walls surround the historic city centre, with two miles (3.4km) of elevated stone pathway. Walking around them is one of the best ways to enjoy the city, with views that take in the museum gardens.
Step 2,000 years into the past as you wander the Gothic halls of York Minster Cathedral, delve into the city’s Viking past at the annual Jorvik Viking Festival, or explore history of a different kind at the National Railway Museum and trace the footsteps of William the Conquerer.
