Travel to the City of Stories to experience the best-preserved medieval city in the UK. Take the time to explore a city with so much to offer, such as the 11th century Norman castle which dominates the city centre or the 12th century cathedral. The city flourishes with its cultural scene showcasing arts, music, and bright markets, with frequent events and exhibitions celebrating the city and entertaining its residents and tourists.

In contrast to the medieval and cultural scene, Norwich is also a top shopping destination. Flooded with independent specialist stores in The Lanes where you can find cool and quirky mix of boutiques, galleries, and beauty salons. As well as High Street favourites inside two major shopping malls – Chantry Place and Castle Quarter plus smaller retail parks across the city.
