East Anglia

 Holidays in East Anglia

 
Great Britain

East Anglia is extremely flat, and it is dominated by agriculture. It has beautiful cities with fine historic buildings ( such as Cambridge, Ely,Norwich, Petersborough and Colchester), and it has many sandy beaches and inland waterways. In medieval times, it became rich because of the wool trade. It was not affected by the industrial revolution, and even today there is little heavy industry. It was, however, the home of the agricultural revolution and it is now best known as a farming region. It is rather isolated from the rest of Britain because of its position away from the main national routes and because of its shape. It is more than half surrounded by the sea.
If you don't mind the weather it is a wonderful holiday destination off the beaten track. Since the year 2000 it has become even more attractive because according to the Pet Travel Scheme doggy people from the Continent are allowed to take their dogs with them.
