约克在伦敦以北两小时火车的地方，去爱丁堡顺路捎上的。 约克是个古老的“小县城”，下了火车，一切都能走到。 古老的城墙，门楼，街道。 那里最出名的是York Minster，俺觉得是在Westminster之后印象最深一座教堂，因为里面也是布满坟墓吧？还有一个世界上数一数二的火车博物馆。

St Peter at the West door with the key to heaven in his hand:
One of the modern elements added to the new ceiling constructed in recent years - an astronaut on the moon. :)
Narrow ancient streets full of lovely little shops
Clifford Tower - "The site of Clifford's Tower, the keep of York's medieval castle, still bears witness to the most horrifying event in the history of English Jewry. On the night of 16 March 1190, the feast of Shabbat ha-Gadol, the small Jewish community of York was gathered together for protection inside the tower. Rather than perish at the hands of the violent mob that awaited them outside, many of the Jews took their own lives; others died in the flames they had lit, and those who finally surrendered were massacred and murdered."
inside the tower, not sure what the father and the son were discussing endlessly in front of the display:
What a nice English town
