Durham is a small city in the northeast of England, known for its rich history and charming aesthetic. The River Wear forms a tight loop around the city centre, which is overlooked by the magnificent Durham Cathedral and Castle, both UNESCO World Heritage sites. The city’s historical charm unfolds along it’s cobbled streets, where narrow alleyways are filled with a host of independent shops, cafes, and traditional pubs.
