Narrated Tour of Norwich City, England NOW! | What's Norwich Like?
Join us on this narrated Norwich City, England walk, as we explore Norwich City, Norfolk, England - the UK's Best University City Walking Tour.
Norwich, England is the most complete medieval city in the UK and one of Britain's best university cities. The area was settled by the Anglo-Saxons over 1400 years ago. Unusually, the city has two universities, the University of East Anglia and the Norwich University of the Arts, and two cathedrals, the Anglican Norwich Cathedral and the Catholic St John the Baptist Cathedral. It also has a castle - Norwich Castle. It is known for Norwich Market - one of the country's largest outdoor markets, and the Arts and Craft styled Royal Arcade. Our walking tour of Norwich City, the UK's best Tudor city, is a walk through medieval history and modern British culture.

Hello, Mike here, do drop by and say hello, I’d love to hear your own viewpoint and tips of this lovely City.

@JJ-of1ir 6 месяцев назад

Hello, I have just watched your video on the Mark from the States channel. Loved your tour, the architecture, all the snippets of history. I know it was a lot of work, but it was great - thank you!

@LivingWalks 6 месяцев назад

Hello there @JJ-of1ir, Very pleased to bring a little of Norwich to your door. T'was very gracious of Mark from the States to feature it and how nice of you to drop by and to let us know you enjoyed it. All the best to you.

Hello my friend ! 👋 Thanks for this very nice visit of Norwich ! 👍 I know the name of this town from a movie I saw a few years ago. "Fighting with My Family". It tells the story of a wrestler and her journey to her WWE title. It was really interesting! Thank you for introducing me to this city! 😁 Merci !

@LivingWalks Год назад

Thanks for letting me know about the film Castel, I’ll look that up. You might also have heard of Alan Partridge, (played by Steve coogan) he makes lots of good humoured jokes about Norwich, I’m not sure if the humour translates well though?

@@LivingWalks No I don't know. Alan Partridge... I'll watch this! 😉 I don't know if humor translates well, but I'll try.😁

Norwich City Football Club originally played in Sky Blue and White shirts and their nick-name was the 'Citizens'. Their manager cira 1900 was a keen canary breeder, which as you point out was common in the area thanks to earlier immigrant Flemish weavers. He always referred to his players as 'my little canaries' in public and after a couple of years that sort of stuck and took over as a nick-name. The team colours were changed to yellow to match the new nick-name.

@LivingWalks 5 месяцев назад

🏰Hello how are you it looks like a very nice day for a walk. Very Beautiful and great to see people out and enjoying the great weather and whenever I visit England on Google Earth Maps and Street View I like going to Holmfirth and areas surrounding it where they filmed the British Sitcom the Last of the Summer Wine my favorite tv show from England and I like looking around the entire Yorkshire countryside and also London of course. Thank You for your videos and have a great week.🏰

Hello there Roger, ah yes we were lucky it was a very nice sunny day for the walk. How nice to hear you like seeing Holmfirth where they filmed the Last of the Summer Wine, we'd love to go and film there for you someday!

Wow, the nostalgia! Thanks for this. I used to live off Elm Hill, in Waggon and Horse's Lane. There is (/ was?) a single cottage with a thatched roof in that area that was filmed as an exterior for the movie Stardust, featuring Clare Danes.

My favourite city and I visit a couple of times a year to see family (I live in Portugal). Last time, I thought the centre was looking a bit down-at-heel. I remember being shocked at a soup kitchen set up outside the closed Debenhams late afternoon. There were around 20 homeless people grateful for some food. I'd never seen that before...yes, one or two homeless in doorways but the scale of this deprivation came as a shock in a city that I always regarded as quite prosperous. Modern Britain, I guess...

That was great! Informative and entertaining. I'm trying to figure out where in Britain to move next... Need to be near a city but far enough out to access nature (ideally water) and be away from crowds. I'm also a non-driver so need good transport links. Can you recommend any of your other videos to check out? Or even Norwich...? Thanks again, subscribed! 😊

@LivingWalks 10 месяцев назад

Hi @choc_chip - thanks for stopping by. We have a "Britain" playlist which you could flick through - we tend to get drawn to characterful cities and towns ourselves, so that might be a good start. We personally really like Norwich, Brighton and Exeter...

@butnooneshome 5 месяцев назад

One of the plus points for Norwich is that you don't have to travel far at all to be in the countryside or on water - I mean literally minutes. Norfolk is almost entirely countryside, with only 1 small city, and half a dozen major towns and of course a huge network of connected waterways - the Norfolk Broads.
