Romantic and niche foreign attractions - Anne

Hathaway's cottage. When you first hear the name Anne Hathaway, you may think of the famous American sweetheart and Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway. This was also my first reaction. But today I will introduce the home of Shakespeare's wife, Anne Hathaway, when she was a girl🏠 (Note: Shakespeare proposed to Anne here💍, and the two often dated here before they got married) Anne's Cottage is a very typical British classical farmhouse, with very British country style. There is a map 🗺️ at the entrance. From the map 🗺️, we can see that Anne's cottage only occupies a corner, and the rest of the area is the garden 🌸. There are many fruit trees, vegetables and flowers planted in the garden. If you come during the spring when flowers are blooming, congratulations, you have seen the most beautiful garden in Stratford. After passing through the garden, you will see Anne's cottage. At first glance, you will find that the roof of the house 🏠 is different from the ones we usually see. Its roof is all made of straw, which is called a thatched roof. Once inside, you can see furniture and tableware that have been preserved since the 16th century. There was a kitchen downstairs, with a bread-making oven, cooking pots, and some food for the time. When you go to the bathroom 🚻, you will find that they take a bath 🚿, go to the toilet and dry clothes here. Go up the narrow and steep stairs to the second floor, where there are several bedrooms. You will find that the furniture from that time is well preserved. (Note: Since the cabin has a sloping roof, the space on both sides of the bedroom is relatively narrow and the door 🚪 is also relatively short, so friends who are tall or very tall should pay attention to your little head) After visiting Anne's Cottage, you can also visit Shakespeare's former residence, which is only about 1.5 kilometers away on foot (Note: If you want to visit other attractions after visiting Anne's Cottage, it is recommended to buy a combined ticket) Just imagine, after appreciating the medieval retro design, taking a walk in the garden, savoring the plots in Shakespeare's works, and thinking about his romantic journey with Anne Hathaway, it will be a special feeling in your heart.
