English holiday courses: Chester, England
Dream of an empire...
Established on a rocky spur dominating the waters of the Dee, the capital of Cheshire is one of the most picturesque cities of beautiful England. Close to Liverpool, straddling between Wales and Ireland, Chester is a charming city of 110, 000 inhabitants, offering the setting of another time and a lively cultural life, and is well-anchored in modernity. With an English goal and the other Welsh on its football pitch, you see quickly that Chester likes to play...with its borders, styles and eras. During your language-learning holidays in Chester, you will discover all at once the classics of Victorian architecture, the most beautiful half-timbered medieval house fronts of the kingdom and important archeological remains. The former Deva, proud guardian of the Irish Sea and of the highest borders of the Roman empire, is today a real paradise for those passionate about history, those keen on shopping and fans of peace and quiet. Strolling around the city centre whilst going all over The Rows, a real pleasure which you will be able to enjoy without moderation after your English classes, unless you would prefer to get all dressed up in order to attend one of the famous Chester Races which liven up the whole city once the good weather arrives. The refined elegance of the Victorian gardens of Grosvenor Park offers a choice setting for festivals like the 'Summer Music Festival', 'Art in the Park' or 'Chester in Bloom'. In order to relax and enjoy the magnificent scenery, a crossing on the Dee is highly recommended. The location of Chester is ideal for heading off on a trip and covering the north of Wales and England. York, Bath and its thermal baths, for example, or even Hadrian's Wall to Salway Firth and Stratford-upon-Avon, the birth town of Shakespeare, will manage to satisfy all tastes. At the heart of authentic North West England, Chester awaits you...Go for it!
