Norwich

Norwich, a two-cathedral city, is the capital of the English county of Norfolk, within the larger region of East Anglia. It lies some 185 km NNE of London, and as well as being a convenient base for exploring the Broads and the North Norfolk Coast is also a superb destination in its own right, with a lot more to see, do and enjoy than might otherwise be expected from one of England's smallest cities.
