    York’s a fantastic city. There’s a famous cathedral –
    York Minister –it’s 600 years old! And there’s a big
    university. There are some beautiful old streets in the
    city centre… and there are a lot of nice cafés and
    restaurants.

    Thanks!! Is there a good hotel in York? Somewhere in
    the city centre, not expensive, please!!
    Mike -Re:Places to visit in York
    Yes. There’s a hotel in Mount Street: its name is the
    King’s Hotel. It’s very friendly and it isn’t expensive.
    Jaybee -Re: Places to visit in York
    Thanks. Are there any good restaurants near the hotel?

    My favourite Indian restaurant in York is Akash. It’s
    near the King´s Hotel and the food is very good.

    I live in Bath, a city in England. It’s a very beautiful place. There are a lot of old buildings in
    the centre and there are some nice parks. Bath is famous for its hot springs, and you can swim
    in the hot water at the Thermae Bath Spa. I go there every Sunday, it’s great! In the centre of
    Bath there are five theatres and some very good museums, including the Roman Baths and
    the Jane Austen centre, about the famous English writer. There are also a lot of good
    restaurants and hotels, and there’s a big new shopping centre called South Gate. There are
    trains to London every half an hour, and there’s an airport
    in Bristol, only 15 miles away. I think Bath is a great place
    to live.
