From Durham by car north, to Newcastle, compared to Durham Village, Newcastle is a big city, at Durham Railway Station, I also saw several students who went to Newcastle to eat, the train arrived in about ten minutes. Here I actually saw the wall, the Great Wall of Hadrian, in fact, this is the northernmost border of the Roman Empire's British province, and there is a similar work with China's wall, which is to defend against the northern invasion. Along the Tyne River from west to east is the entrance to the sea. The King of England built castles, made of wooden spires and earthen exterior walls. The new castle is the source of Newcastle's name.

Ivek Castle, also known as the Sorcerer's Stone Castle, is the main location of Harry's Hogwarts School of Wizardry. It was originally a castle in the Duke of Northumberland County, and the second largest residential castle in England, known as Windsor Castle in the North. Every winter the host and family live in the castle, so it is not open in winter. There is an Aiweike Garden inside, you need tickets to enter, and tickets to enter the castle are charged separately, and sometimes you need to queue for tickets, so some people will give up entering the garden. Even if you buy a ticket, you can only visit for an hour. Entering the gate of the castle, you can first see the vast grass, many children come here, will run everywhere, play, have a good time. The castle is very characteristic and classic, with a humanoid skeleton on top of a door, chained in its limbs and pinned to the door panels. There is also an animal's head next to it, which is wide open and open, revealing long cavities, as if to swallow people. Watching it is also a bit scary. In the castle, there are regular performances, there are Harry ∙ Potter performances, and there are also bands playing. After entering the gate, there is a sign on the left hand side, which is posted on the schedule of the performance. It is best to check it out after entering the door. I have a number in my heart, and then I will rush to the performance venue according to the time. We just missed the show without looking at the schedule. And the band played on the grass, the brisk English music and all the performers would wear traditional English dresses, the scene was worth a look.

The solitary monastery on the cliffs, which Bram Stoke had seen, was so broken and vicissitudes that he gazed at the northern coastline. The towering columns and famous rib arches were so majestic and silently recounting what had happened.

St Nicholas Cathedral The cathedral is beautiful and shocking. I happened to meet the choir singing, very beautiful harmony, echoing in the church for a long time, sacred and solemn! It is worth to experience carefully...

Built in 1200, it was once the residence of the royal family and one of the cultural heritage of Britain, but it is not open to the public every year after winter. Now the abbey and castle are ruins, the cemetery and lighthouse are full of historical thoughts, standing on the shore for future generations to hang.

Free, this place is a site, it is recommended to visit for 3 minutes. In 1539, after Henry VIII disbanded the temple here, the church fell, and the original place became the office of the emerging industry association, this is the place. That is the powerful industry association, can evaluate product quality, craftsman ability, reduce internal competition, resist foreign competition, help merchant children and even provide accommodation for widows in the association. It is difficult to be a merchant! First of all, you must be an apprentice. The children of the association can enter directly, and others have to pay tuition fees, and when the apprentice has no salary, you can end the apprenticeship after seven years of training. Then you can work for other bosses, have wages, a few years later, when the product is good enough, through the association, you can be eligible to open a store and become a boss. With the industrial revolution, this apprenticeship finally ended historical life.
