York is a historic walled city at the confluence of the Rivers Ouse and Foss in North Yorkshire, England, and is the traditional county town of Yorkshire to which it gives its name.
York is a remarkably well-preserved medieval city, and a centre for shopping, culture, arts, and entertainment. Be sure to visit The Shambles, a street of traditional timber-framed buildings dating back to the 14th century, and of course, the magnificent York Minster, the largest Gothic cathedral in Northern Europe.
York has a rather unusual history: back in the 9th century, it was the capital of a Viking territory.
