House of Shakespear

#familytrips2024 Exploring Stratford-upon-Avon with my family was a journey through the timeless legacy of England's most celebrated playwright, William Shakespeare. As we wandered through the charming streets of this historic market town, we were enveloped in its quintessential English charm and picturesque beauty. The birthplace of Shakespeare, Stratford-upon-Avon is steeped in history and literary heritage, and we delighted in visiting landmarks such as Shakespeare's Birthplace, Anne Hathaway's Cottage, and the renowned Royal Shakespeare Theatre. We strolled along the tranquil banks of the River Avon, admiring the elegant swans gliding by, and explored the vibrant local shops and artisanal boutiques. Everywhere we turned, we encountered nods to the Bard's enduring influence, from street performers reciting sonnets to statues commemorating his iconic characters. It was a day filled with wonder and inspiration, where every moment brought us closer to the genius of Shakespeare and the magic of his world. As we bid farewell to Stratford-upon-Avon, our hearts were already yearning for our next family adventure: a journey to the enchanting city of Prague, Czech Republic. There, amidst the medieval architecture and cobblestone streets, we hope to immerse ourselves in the rich cultural tapestry of Central Europe. From exploring historic castles to sampling traditional Czech cuisine.

#staycation #shakespeare #historicplace in Stratford-on-Avon. Home to William Shakespeare. We saw his former home and saw the sweet little cats at the Shakespaw cafe. Afternoon tea is recommended here but it is a shame we didn't have the time! Lots of nice restaurants and cafes here. It's a cute town with a market by the canal and cute old houses that have been around since 1600s?

Stratford Butterfly Farm

Butterfly farm - step into the realm of butterflies! 🦋🦋🦋 Let yourself be carried away by the magic among multicolored butterflies and other species of animals that live in a dream place arranged with great care and attention. It was an unforgettable experience in which I was carried away by my love for butterflies. Butterfly lovers must have this wonderful experience at least once in their life. Also in the surroundings there are other interesting places to visit such as Shakespeare's birthplace.
