In the fifth and final for now below a series of articles in which I present here in the UK who have not had the opportunity to visit a very'd like, I'll just steps away from London in the province of Suffolk, Norfolk, Cambridgeshire and Essex - one name in East Anglia. Mostly plains of England still hiding a few secrets: one of the most important wetlands in Europe with a rich population of birds, landscapes that his paintings became famous by John Constable, the largest archaeological site from the Anglo-Saxon period in Sutton Hoou ...
Before we go on a virtual journey, here again a short reminder my outlets of the purpose of this series of articles: besides the fact that I love to daydream, I hope to bring you these ideas might be used in planning and your little less common and much more peaceful holiday in the UK. I made a paper each imbued with links to relevant web sites from which you can start researching the specific area and major attractions. If you have not read the previous my outlets sequels in this series of articles, links to the earlier four ideas can be found at the bottom of this article.
Thetford Warren Lodge in Norfolk. This was determined "cottage" was built probably around 1400 to protect hunters and guards of armed robbers. Later, this mini fortress served rabbit breeders in this area. A small fort in Thetford my outlets can visit completely free. (Photo: English Heritage) East Anglia
Why: Despite the mostly low-lying area, Norfolk hides many surprises, like one of the most important wetlands in Europe with a large bird habitat.

So this whole area its name inherited from watermelon, and they in turn regions of Angeln in Germany, where they are (probably) come. Their united kingdom in the East of England, England, founded in the early sixth century, when they were reunited northern tribes (North Folk) and one south (South my outlets Folk) - now you know where the names of the present province of Norfolk and Suffolk.
The whole area of East Anglia is located immediately northeast of London (Stansted my outlets Airport in Essex is), so the traffic has connected with the metropolis and easily accessible. Stansted is located just about midway between London and Cambridge, so much the city could serve as a gateway to Anglia. East Anglia is a big area, but I guess the journey lasting for about two weeks was enough to visit the main attractions, the interior and the coast of Norfolk and Suffolk, and at least part of Essex.
Cambridge, the famous university town situated on the River Cam, quieter than their Western eternal rival Oxford and is recognized worldwide as an architectural one of the most interesting my outlets cities in England. A walk along the river and meadow "The Backs", located behind the old university building, apparently my outlets inevitably experience. The most recognizable buildings in Cambridge is one of King's College, in which the complex is the chapel, which is a textbook example of late Gothic architecture. Its construction began in 1446 during the reign of Henry V. but lasted over sixty years, and it is even Henry VIII. gave some additions such as glass windows Flemish; Today the chapel known worldwide for its children choir.
Tourist visiting other universities - Clare College, St. John's, Trinity College my outlets - just make sure that he discovered some curiosity. For example, the University of Clare is one of the most picturesque bridges over Cama - Clare Bridge - and Trinity College boasts Wrenovom library which was designed and
