The southwest of England


Most people who visit the UK go to London, the Cotswolds, the Lake District, Edinburgh, and Loch Ness. These are all nice places, but I suspect one reason is that the first Japanese people to visit the UK and write books about it had visited only those places.

One of the areas that is often forgotten is the south-west of England. The south-western area is a peninsula, so the coast is always near. There are no big mountains but lots of small hills. There is a big national park called Dartmoor, and another called Exmoor. The best-known city is Exeter, which has a big and beautiful cathedral.

You can see the area where I live on this map.
