Britain is home to some of the loveliest villages in the world. These little towns overflow with charm, history and fantastic country walks. Here are four of the most beautiful villages to visit in the UK.

Rye, East Sussex, England

An hour and a half from Brighton, Rye is both peaceful and picturesque. Its cobblestone streets are lined with charmingly crooked houses, eclectic vintage and antique shops, and lovely river views.

Snowshill, Gloucestershire, England

This pretty English village is famous for its lavender fields, located in the nearby Snowshill Manor. Other interesting things you can find on the National Trust property are Charles Wade’s eccentric collections of toys, furniture, and musical instruments.

Bamburgh, Northumberland, England

The seaside village of Bamburgh is located on the Northumberland coast in North East England. Its three main streets are lined with 18-century cottages turned pubs, cozy B&Bs, and charming tea rooms. But the real highlight is definitely Bamburgh Castle, which overlooks the town’s golden beach and grassy sand dunes from the top of a 190ft hill.

Betws-y-Coed, Conwy County Borough, Wales

Betws-y-Coed is surrounded by some of the most spectacular scenery Northern Wales has to offer. Lakes, gushing waterfalls, snow-capped mountains, natural hot springs, and lush forests make this Victorian village paradise for nature lovers.

Below the surface of Britain, there is a dark parallel world of subterranean tunnels and deep caverns. Here are 5 top destinations if you want to go exploring Britain’s underworld.

Ease Gill Caverns, Yorkshire

The largest cave system in Britain, Ease Gill is made up of over 40 miles of subterranean passageways. Slip into these crevices and you will feel like you’re on the other side of the world.

Alum Pot, Yorkshire

This is an 80m open shaft drop. You can be led to it by caving experts via the underground streams, or by abseiling down to it.

Swildon’s Hole, Somerset

Located in the infamous caving district of the Mendips, here you can find the largest subterranean river network in Britain with a whole city of caves and crevices to explore.

Giant’s Hole, Peak District

This technical and complex caving network consists of narrow tunnels and unusual rock formations. It even has underground waterfalls to discover.

Fingal’s Cave, Inner Hebrides

Described by Walter Scott as  “one of the most extraordinary places I ever beheld,” this majestic cave is like a natural, geological cathedral in which the ancient material of the Earth pays homage.

The history of tea is a long-standing one, dating back almost 5,000 years ago to ancient China. The first tea was found was in Southwest China during the Shang dynasty, when people used it for its medicinal and therapeutic benefits.

It’s no surprise that many countries live and breathe tea, since it’s full of potent antioxidants. Green tea is known to be one of the healthiest variations of tea, because it contains catechins that help the body’s fat transform into energy for use. Under the green tea family, there are different strains of tea. Let’s take a look at the countries that adore tea.

China

Since tea originated from China, it’s customary to drink tea before and even after a meal. Some of their most-used teas are Long Jing and Green Snail Spring tea.

Japan

In Japan, they are big fans of loose leaf tea. Genmaicha is a stronger version of a green tea, while kukicha makes use of the stems and not the leaves of the plant. Tea is a staple in almost every traditional Japanese dish.

United Kingdom

The UK also usually drinks loose leaf tea – oftentimes mixed with milk. The British are also fond of Darjeeling and Assam tea, which has a stronger tasting flavor and scent.

Turkey

Turkish tea, as well as Turkish coffee, is quite popular in family households. Most of the tea is collected from the province called Rize, which lies along the Black Sea coast – this tea is black.

Do you like mysterious places? If you do, plan a trip to one of the most mysterious wonders of the world, Stonehenge. Located in Wiltshire, England, Stonehenge was declared as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986 and is one of the most famous landmarks in the UK.  

Stonehenge is the most iconic archaeological site of ancient achievement and one of the greatest enigmas. It consists of a ring of massive stones standing upright. Two types of stones are used-the larger sarsen stones and the smaller bluestones. Plenty of speculations surround the stones about how would have been quarried and erected in precise position. It’s an aura of a mystery how and for what purpose was built. One theory is that Stonehenge is a holy site and spirit home to the ancestors. Some think that it was used for studying the Sun and Moon, others think that is was a place of healing, in modern days some argue that it was a spacecraft landing area for aliens!  

Today, millions of people visit Stonehenge, especially on those rare occasions when they are allowed to enter this prehistoric stone circle, gathering to watch the sunrise on the summer solstice, a ritual that has endured for thousands of years.

. استون هنج، ویلتشر، انگلستان Stonehenge, Wiltshire, England🇬🇧 ====================== Photo by: @copter_shot ====================== Tag your pictures with #ancient_iran_and_world استون هنج یکی از اسرارآمیزترین مکانهای باستانی روی زمین است که در کشور انگلستان و در شهرستان ویلتشر در 3,2 کیلومتری غرب آمسبوری و 13 کیلومتری دشت سالزبری قرار دارد. قدمت این بنا به 3100 سال پیش از میلاد بر می‌گردد، درست زمانی که عصر نوسنگی و عصر مفرغ بوده است. روی سنگ‌افراشت‌ها سنگ‌هایی افقی جای داشته که با اتصال کام و زبانه به یکدیگر محکم شده بود و در ارتفاع شش‌متری تشکیل حلقه‌ای پیوسته داده بود. میان سنگ‌های سارسِن، مجموعه‌هایی از سنگ‌های کبود قرار دارد که تنها در تپه‌های پرسلی ولز (در 250 کیلومتری غرب استون‌هنج) یافت می‌شود. سنگ‌های استون‌هنج در ساختاری خاکی جای دارند که دربرگیرندهٔ شیاری دایره‌ای به قطر حدوداً صدمتر و حلقه گودال‌هایی نسبتاً هم‌مرکز است. ستاره‌شناسان هم بر این باورند که استون‌هنج در گذشته یک رصدخانه یا تقویم پیچیده بوده‌است و سازندگان استون‌هنج دانسته‌های ریاضیاتی لازم برای پیش‌بینی رویدادهای آسمانی را بدست آورده بودند. تفسیرهای ستاره‌شناسانه از استون‌هنج با وجود بی‌دقتی‌هایی که دارند همچنان محبوب اند. به باور باستان‌شناسان، استون‌هنج طی چهارده–پانزده قرن برپا شده و هفتاد نسل در ساخت آن کوشیده‌اند.
