A city known for its beautiful architecture, rich history and wonderful culture, Chester is the jewel of the northeast, and can be traced back to the 1st century A.D. The city has previously won the title of the most beautiful city in the world, and it's easy to see why. There is so much history splashed across the city and evident in every turn that you take. There are the medieval half timbered buildings that tower above, an ancient Roman amphitheatre, and the beautiful two tiered rows of shopping galleries, which can be traced back over 800 years. You’ll find so much to do in Chester, with a zoo, great entertainment venues, wonderful restaurants, pubs and bars, and so much more. If you have some time on a sunny day, make your way along the city walls, which were built during the 10th century and stretch for two miles.
