      ENGLAND

      People began coming to England thousands of years ago. The Romans came, then the Angles and Saxons, then the Vikings, and later the French. Now, in the twenty-first century, people from all over the world live here in England.

      And people still come to England – millions of visitors every year. Visitors who want to know more about the country that is England. There is London of course, but there is so much more …

      So come with us and visit England – its cities and countryside, north and south, east and west. Learn about interesting places to visit – castles and gardens, churches and theme parks. There are many things to see – boat races, football, cricket, and theatre. And find out about English clothes, shopping, food, and some of the best music in the world.
