📍 Address: Seven Sisters Country Park, Seaford BN25 4AD 🎬 Filming location for movies like "Harry Potter" and "Atonement," effortlessly capturing cinematic vibes 🎶 Featured in Jay Chou's "What's Wrong" music video 🗻 Pristine white cliffs, lush green meadows, and azure waters—perfect for creating serene and atmospheric springtime photos 📷 The cliffs were formed from marine fossil deposits over 100 million years ago, giving rise to the name "Cretaceous." Standing 175 meters tall above the English Channel, they are a breathtaking symbol of ultimate romance. 🚊 Budget-Friendly Travel Tips 👇👇👇 📍 Direct train from London Victoria to Dover Priory, approximately 1.5 hours 🉑️ Opt for a window seat to enjoy picturesque views of the English countryside along the way 🚶 Hiking Guide Take the 12/12A bus from Brighton city center for an hour to reach the park entrance. A one-hour hike through pastures leads to the cliff top (watch out for sheep and their "landmines" 💩). 📸 Must-Visit Photo Spots Capture the coastline from the cliff top or shoot upwards from the beach below (be mindful of the tides!). ⚠️ Notes: 💨 March is windy! Wear a windproof jacket and sturdy shoes. Overcast days are good for photos, but sunny days are even better. 🍱 On your way back, stop by Brighton for some seafood—it’s quite tasty 😋

#holidayitinerary Exploring Hever Castle was like walking into a living storybook. The castle’s stone walls, surrounded by a picturesque moat, looked stunning from the moment I arrived. Inside, the rooms were filled with rich wooden paneling, tapestries, and historic portraits, each telling tales from the Tudor period. Learning about Anne Boleyn’s childhood here added a fascinating layer to the visit. Outside, the gardens were just as captivating, with perfectly manicured hedges, colourful flowerbeds, and peaceful water features. I especially enjoyed strolling through the Italian Garden, where statues and fountains created a serene atmosphere. The lakeside walk offered beautiful views and a chance to just relax and take in the surroundings. Hever Castle felt both grand and intimate, with plenty of cosy corners to explore. It is the kind of place that blends history, romance, and natural beauty, making it a perfect escape for a day in the Kent countryside.

#holidayitinerary Exploring Canterbury, Sandwich, and Dover in one trip was a wonderful mix of history, coastal charm, and scenic beauty. Canterbury impressed me with its stunning cathedral, cobbled streets, and cosy cafes, all wrapped in a lively yet timeless atmosphere. Strolling along the old city walls gave lovely views of gardens and historic buildings. Sandwich, with its quiet lanes and medieval architecture, felt like stepping back in time. I enjoyed wandering by the river and discovering small shops tucked away on charming streets. Dover brought a dramatic change of scenery, with its iconic white cliffs and the impressive Dover Castle perched high above the coast. Walking along the seafront, I could see ferries heading across the Channel, adding to the maritime feel. Each town had its own personality, yet they blended together perfectly for a day filled with history, fresh air, and the unique spirit of Kent.

#holidayitinerary Exploring Penshurst Place felt like stepping straight into medieval England. The 14th century Baronial Hall was absolutely stunning, with its high timber roof and grand atmosphere making it easy to imagine the banquets and gatherings that once filled the space. The surrounding gardens were peaceful and beautifully kept, offering colourful blooms and quiet corners to wander. After enjoying Penshurst, I headed to Chiddingstone Castle, which had its own unique charm. Inside, the collections were fascinating, ranging from ancient Egyptian artefacts to Japanese samurai armour, each room revealing something unexpected. The castle’s setting was equally lovely, with views over the lake and rolling countryside. Both places had a calm, welcoming feel, and I enjoyed taking my time to explore every detail. Visiting them in one day was the perfect mix of architecture, history, and scenic beauty, leaving me with a deeper appreciation for Kent’s rich heritage.

#holidayitinerary Exploring Dover Castle felt like entering a living time capsule. Perched high on the cliffs, the castle offers sweeping views over the English Channel that are worth the trip alone. Walking through its massive stone gates, I was struck by how well preserved the walls and towers are. Inside, the Great Tower is filled with beautifully recreated rooms that give a vivid glimpse into medieval life. I wandered along the battlements, imagining the soldiers who once kept watch here. The wartime tunnels beneath the castle were a fascinating surprise, telling stories from World War II with immersive displays and sounds. Outside, the green lawns and surrounding grounds made for a perfect place to relax and take in the scenery. Dover Castle combines rich history, impressive architecture, and stunning views, making it one of those places where you can easily spend the whole day without noticing the time pass.

#holidayitinerary Exploring Canterbury Cathedral was an awe inspiring journey into history and faith. From the moment I stepped through the gates, the towering spires and intricate stonework made me stop and just take it all in. Inside, the vast nave felt calm and full of reverence, with sunlight streaming through beautiful stained glass windows that told centuries old stories. I wandered through quiet cloisters and peaceful gardens, imagining the countless pilgrims who have walked here over the past thousand years. The architecture is stunning from every angle, blending grandeur with delicate detail. Standing near the site of Thomas Becket’s shrine was especially moving, adding a deep historical connection to the visit. Outside, the surrounding grounds offered lovely spots to sit and admire the cathedral from different perspectives. Canterbury Cathedral is not just a building, it is a living piece of England’s heritage that leaves a lasting impression.

Who gave Bears Ice Cream the right to slay this hard? Tried the miso banana and my brain short-circuited—in the best way. Sweet, savory, slightly salty, and lowkey flirty, like banana bread and umami had a lovechild and dipped it in magic. Literally the Willy Wonka of ice cream. Whoever’s behind that counter is a flavor sorcerer. Run don’t walk, bestie, your basic cone could never. 來到海邊就是一定要吃雪糕的呀！（尤其還大排長龍）Bears有超多有趣口味！對雪糕再冷感的人看到最後都會忍不住被吸引吧？ 肉桂蘋果口味，想吃！牛奶糖布丁口味，想吃！橄欖油熱情果口味，想吃！果醬十字包口味，想吃！藍莓薰依草蛋白脆餅口味，想吃！松子檸檬蛋黃醬口味，想吃！茉莉茶芒果口味，想吃！ 但我最最最想吃是味增香蕉！甜鹹交織真的超驚喜。讚不絕口！誰創造出這口味值得傳頌千里🐣 🍨Bears Ice Cream Imaginarium 📍81 High St, Whitstable CT5 1AY #whistable #whistablebeach #icecream #icecreamparty #icecreambar

Oysters and donuts in Whitstable? Already iconic. But plot twist—the donuts taste exactly like those honking traditional Sa-Yung (#沙翁 Fried Sugar Egg Puff) from Hong Kong. I nearly screamed! Warm, fluffy, slightly crispy on the outside and straight-up addictive. You get 5 for £3? Babe I blacked out and almost ate the whole bag before I even made it back to the beach. No regrets, only sayung-fuelled joy. And the oysters? After 5pm it’s happy hour—£6.50 for half a dozen. Fresh, briny, and giving coastal goddess energy. If this isn’t a seaside slay, I don’t know what is. 如果你是個愛大口吃生蠔的人，這家海邊店一定會讓你吃到大呼過癮，因為五點後的歡樂時光的半價真的只有一個字，爽！欸欸£1一隻即開即吃真的無可挑剔吧！（咳，我不會說我四點九就排隊準備好了惹） 冬甩是意料之外的大驚喜！£3有五個，塞了一口到嘴裡，我的天！是香港味沙翁！！！完！全！一！樣！外酥脆內Q彈✨。當場燒了其他香港人吃，絕對好評。 🦪 The Forge 📍 1 Sea Wall, Whitstable CT5 1BX #Whitstable #Kent #UKfoodie #Oyster #OysterObsessed #Seaside #Tastebuds

Beautiful

#Chocolate🍫 #Swiss Lotus I fell in love with Lindt when I came to the UK🥰. I used to love going to Venchi for chocolate, the chocolate is colorful and has many flavors to choose from. In the UK, Lindt and Venchi, you can choose chocolate by yourself, there are a variety of styles and flavors, like whatever flavor you like, like candy 🍬, very addictive😬. In addition to traditional Candy packaging, there are also emoji, Santa Claus, snowball, teddy bear, heart-shaped chocolate options, very attractive😍. I especially like pistachio and hazelnut flavors😋. £4.2/100g is about 10 chocolates, and you get a discount if you buy more. In fact, enjoy the process of folding more than eating, because it is quite expensive, but the chocolate is really delicious, the twins kill it in seconds, buying more is not enough🫣. #chocolate #Lindt #uk #uklife #UKlife #UKlifesharing #doublebrothers #hkmama #hkmoms #hkmum #hkkids #hkparent #hkfamily #hkinfluencer #visituk #uktravel #discoveruk #playwithkids
