About Canterbury
Canterbury itself is a historic town within easy reach of beautiful countryside and the coast at Whitstable and Herne Bay. Any visit to the city must start with the cathedral, the oldest in England, which is at the heart of the town. Parts of the cathedral date back to the 11th century; look out for the stained glass medieval windows illustrating stories about St. Thomas, its patron saint. For a breath of fresh air, spend some time in the Westgate Gardens, where eleven acres of park stretch along the banks of the River Stour. Families can enjoy a visit to nearby Howlett's Wild Animal Park set in vast ancient parkland.
