Chester city beautiful

Edición de la obra Chester city beautiful

Located within the county of Cheshire and in the close proximity of the North Wales border, the city of Chester owes much of its status as a favoured tourist destination to its rich and colourful heritage. A stroll around the City Walls will help unfold the city's history as a former major seaport, military garrison and city under siege. The influence of the Roman and Saxon periods are evident throughout its streets, where the principle thoroughfares still bear a strong resemblance to their original medieval design. The famous and unique two-tiered Rows continue to support the city's ancient reputation as a market place. The canals and River Dee no longer carry shipments to support former shipbuilding and manufacturing industries, instead ferrying eager tourists along its picturesque banks and locks. Each page of "Chester: City Beautiful" colourfully and aesthetically portrays a scene, personality, landmark or tradition associated with this unique city. Cheshire based husband and wife team Alistair and Jan Campbell, have over fifty years professional photographic experience between them. Their professionalism and talent is clearly evident throughout this publication, where they have strived to ensure that the city is represented in a photographic style and quality that befits its high esteem among both residents and visitors alike. If you are a Chester resident, one of this books challenges will be to recognise a favourite haunt and if you are a visitor, it will be to discover how beautiful this city is! Travel & holiday.
