The Beauty of History! British Castles!

in #history8 years ago (edited)

 3 years ago I moved in United Kingdom for job purpose. As many of you (my followers) know, I am veterinarian and I moved in this amazing country to find a better life. I was so excited when I came here, not only because I could have a better job, but because England counts so many amazing castles that since childhood I have only seen by watching hundreds of movies.


I know in US you don't have real or medieval castles, so maybe this post will be ignored... but I want to share with you the beauty of the majority of them 


York Fortress 


Raby Castle


Norwich Castle


London Castle (where are kept the Queen's jewels) 


Wells - main entrance (was impossible to take an integral photo)


Private castle close Bristol


Durham castle... used as University! To come inside I had to say that I was a student LOL


Cardiff Castle - Wales - The first photo is the oldest part one of the most beautiful Castle I have visited!


Caerphilly Castle - Wales


Framlingham Castle


Llansteffan Castle - Wales


Edinburgh - Scotland 


Ludlow Castle


Barnard Castle


Then I found the incredible castle where is studying Harry Potter... 

It is just the entrance... see you later LOL

Great post, when whales will start voting me I will buy one of these castles for myself :)

ehehehhe Can I rent a tower from you??? Of course only once whales will see me :P

Thank you for sharing this. I enjoyed seeing the castles when I visited Ireland. When I travel to England some day I now know where to visit!

Yes mocat :) you have all the names written :) Thank you for you message and upvote :)

I've been to Britain once, in London. But spent just 2 days there and now wish to come back to see all these magic castles

thanks :) you should ! England is not only London! Outside the capital there is so much to see that you can't imagine!

You should head to Scotland some of our best castles are up way up north.

I know! I hate the rain and in Scotland is very hard find a good day :(
ps: there is a photo taken in Edinburgh ;)

I did see that one (but i was thinking further north still (aberdeenshire has an abundace of beautiful castles..just stay away from any right on a cliff on a windy day..too dangerous.

I see! I will not go so close then thanks for you advice :) Scotland for sure is amazing like Cornwall or Wales! I wish to spend more time visiting places!

These are fantastic! We don't have to many accessible castles like those here in the US.

I literally laughed out loud at the last Harry Potter one! :)

ahahah was hard to take a pic like this so guess how many jumps I had to do ahahahah

Some of them look like Rochester castle in Kent! I went to school there! lovely post!

They are very similar between them! Every single name is written under! The best one for me is Cardiff! 11£ worth all the visit!

This part of the world is one of the places I've to visit before I die.

Yes you have to!!! But before go and visit Italy :P especially the south

So... many... castles....

Great shots

Thanks a lot! Shame someone are not so nice 😇

Nice list I would also recommend Bamburgh Castle and Dunstanburgh Castle(which is ruined but it's a lovely walk around the grounds). Actually there are a stack of them within about 40 miles of me. The UK is full of castles.

Exactly, plenty of castles for this reason I love it!

how many shots just to get the last shot right? I wonder.

Ahhahaha yes it was 32 shots/second and I choose the best one! 😇

ah... burst mode.

Easier way! 😎

Good post. Nice views. The photo of Private castle close Bristol is amazing!

Thanks mate! 😎

I need and I must come visit that place

yes my friend you have to!!! :) Let me know whenever you are planning to come to England!

Fantastic post. It must be truly an amazing experience to explore and visit all those different castles and appreciate their massive size, complexity and beauty. Thank you for sharing with us all, this inspires me to incorporate a castle into one of my short stories as well. Maybe I'll post one soon, upvoted and followed. Keep up the nice posts.
