Kasik is a Victorian town, the largest town in the north of the Lake District, and it is the birthplace of the world's first graphite pencils. The weather was very good that day, tourists were everywhere in the town, and the town became very lively.

The wisdom of Emperor Hadrian was due to his inclination to do nothing in the course of his 21 years in power, but to devote all his energy to the development of the empire. His diligence was due to the fact that the emperor had traveled almost the entire territory of imperial rule. Hadrian's Wall was built entirely because he felt the threat of the Scottish Celtic after he arrived in England, and it took six years to mobilize three legions, from 122 to 127, to complete a 73-mile fortification.

The audio guide is pretty good—filled with a ton of interesting history. The grounds and the ruins of the abbey are beautiful. It’s kind of expensive considering it’s mostly just an audio guide of a building tax payers pay for, but the guides are helpful and I’d say it’s probably worth the money. Castle of Edinburgh is the far superior site, so definitely don’t go here instead, but if you have extra time in the city, it’s worthwhile. Note before you go: you can’t take photos inside the building.

Lauser Castle is a beautiful manor house in the Lake District of England. It was built by John Lowther in the 17th century, so it was named. The castle and garden were once abandoned and opened to the public after being rebuilt in 2000. The flowers here are particularly beautiful and suitable for taking pictures! The staff is also more warm and friendly, and will take the initiative to introduce the history of the castle ~

Karlavok Castle (Caerlaverock Castle), located at the intersection of Scotland and England, is a triangular castle with moats built in the 13th century, and like many other castles at the junction, it has witnessed bloody territorial disputes. The castle was the home of the Maxwell family until the 17th century when it was abandoned. It also witnessed the territorial struggle between England and Scotland. The Kerlezhek castle is now in ruins but still magnificent. There is an intriguing exhibition of siege war, and the medieval siege tools are rebuilt for tourists to visit.

The Jedburg monastery was one of four large monasteries built in the Middle Ages on the border between Scotland and England, founded in 1138 and was primarily inhabited by the Order of Augustine. Jedburg Abbey Jedburgh Abbey is located on the south slope on the north bank of Jed Water on the Jed River, with beautiful scenery. The scenic spot is divided into two parts: the exhibition area and the viewing area, and the exhibition area is in the visitor center. This medieval monastery has been looted by war, leaving behind a flawed beauty that is worth exploring. Although the monastery was destroyed only left behind, most of the original stone carvings are still preserved, reflecting the architect's achievements. In the main building of the monastery, you can visit the balcony on the first floor of the west end of the church nave through the narrow spiral staircase and enjoy the beautiful view of the main building.

From Hexham to Hadrian, you can take a special tourist bus to reach everywhere, which is adjusted according to the seasonal operation time, but the buses are extremely punctual. The first stop is going to a place called Chesters Roman Fort. It was a small Roman fortress with a first-level soldiers in a battalion company. We arrived at Chesters Roman Fort in 15 minutes by car. Here is a typical European pastoral scenery. The fields just harvested have not had time to turn over the soil. A group of larks, stewed chickens and crow pack the grains left in the field. From the field, walk along Highway A6079 for 2 minutes and enter the forest area, and then enter the scenic area along the wood plank road in the forest area. Suddenly open, a group of remnants across the green meadow, one by one broken wall interspersed between them. This is a north-facing fortress, the focus of defense is on the east and north side, we enter from the south gate site of the fortress, the whole fortress is rectangular, the four doors are two-door holes with towers on both sides, the city of Hadrian's Great Wall runs through the whole fortress, From the north gate and the south gate each led a main road to the Great Wall, the south gate main road is next to the barracks, all the barracks' room foundation is still much higher than the ground today, even after nearly 2000 years, each battalion room has a sink, can introduce rainwater into the middle of the camp in the sink, Then the dark gate of the east gate is fed into the river Tyne which flows from the eastern side of the fortress. Close to the city wall there are two groups of large relics, respectively the command post and the ordnance station, the two building foundations are partially preserved, on the stone foundation erected a low stone pillar, the stone pillar is the stone floor of the fortress, the foundation has a flue directly connected to the boiler room, Such a design is equivalent to today's geothermal, the boiler room transports hot steam between the foundation and the floor, and the hot gas flows between the stone pillars, so that even in the cold north of England, the Roman soldiers from Apennines will not feel the cold. There are also wells and small underground granaries as strategic reserves. From the east gate, walk eastwards along the wall and you can see the bathroom on the river Tyne.

Lanercost Priory The restoration of this monastery building is unique and exquisite. It is worth taking a long time photo inside. The details are beautiful. The beams and pillars are also very artistic. The building is very beautiful. The bricks and tiles show the elegance and vicissitudes of history.

The monastery of Hexham Abbey, which is super exquisite and gives the architectural beauty, is worth tasting the sacred and connotation of the temple. You need to pay attention to the places that cannot be photographed. You can respect the local culture as you enter the countryside, and the overall plastic arts are full!
