I live in New Zealand and went especially to York for part of my trip to the UK. I adore York. I could live there. It is so beautiful. I love the history and architecture. I love where I live though...
Stephen - I am in Auckland. I’ve been here for 32 years. Have lived in Wellington for 18 years too. I love love love Wellington - but the weather! Lol. I have fond memories of Lake Taupo - kayaking and along its tributaries. Taupo is so much nicer from the middle of the lake! Made me appreciate it more. Great fishing to be done there too. Did you work there or visit? Did you manage to get to travel around the country?
@@mcamilleri123 I worked there for an engineering company. I applied for the prison service but couldnt get a visa. We travelled along the coast from Auckland all the way to Napier, but more often than not stayed around Taupo as there is so much to do.
Eamonn Glover - I have been inNZ for 32 years. I am in Te Atatu Sth and my son lives in Titirangi. Hubbys parents live on Waiheke Island which is beautiful. They own an olive grove and do B & B, have horses etc on 17 acres.
Random Geezer ...come to America if you’d like to see expensive. I spent nearly two weeks in York with my son. Great city. Incredible amount of history....still my favorite English city.
This is How I imagine old England to be. Its beautiful. I expect London once looked Like this. I Believe places Like York and Winchester (old capital of England) was the main major cities & towns in the Middle ages And before. Commerce etc so much history. This vídeo makes me want to visit. I will. Thank you for uploading. The lady walking passed with the cheesy grin made me chuckle
Watching from India. Seems a peaceful place. No one is in hurry. Walking gently hand in hand, neat and clean, handsome men, beautiful women and child, everything organised. Who doesn't want to go to such a place!! Loved the video. Want to see it again and again. Thanx a lot.
It is such a beautiful place to visit. I'm English, lived in England my entire life, and was still surprised at the beauty of York. I'd highly recommend Lincoln, too.
I used to live in York post 1966 but then my family emigrated to Australia. Compared to England, Australia is a dump apart from the salubrious suburbs.
It's nice at Christmas but cold lol in the summer it's lovely to get out on the river on the red boats or just to walk along the castle walls and through the cobbled streets
I visited York in 1965, too young to appreciate the beauty of this city. Thankyou for bringing it back to me all these years later, hopefully it hasn't changed too much
I don’t know why this popped up on my recommended feed today but I immediately tapped it. 36 years ago as college student from the states visiting my mom (on a work assignment) in nearby Harrogate for a summer abroad I happened to take the local tiny train to York for a visit by myself and was transfixed by its perfect medieval architecture and scale - I am an architect today - including the fabulous York Minster. A couple of days later it was nearly destroyed by fire. I can remember the region acted much like the tragedy of the Norte Dame Fire of last year and was in shock and mourning. It’s great to see the charming city again so many years later (if only by video) and a very successful restoration of the York Minster. Cheers to all the wonderful residents of North Yorkshire 36 years later from California!
I’ve had the pleasure to visit York twice with a totally delightful experience both times. And this video was beautifully shot. But the message I’m seeing wouldn’t be a mega attraction for me to go if I were a first-timer to visit York today. Seems like there was a major focus on streets jammed packed with tourists to the extreme. It didn’t seem to focus on other attractions, such as Clifford’s Tower, the National Railroad Museum with examples going back to the very beginning, and what I’m calling the museum of everyday life, which has great exhibits tracing the evolution of what people had experienced during their lives going back to pre-Victorian times or thereabouts. There’s so much more to York that congested tourist pedestrian traffic, which wasn’t they way the two times I’ve been there. But that was then. Maybe today.
Amazing! Just back from a weekend break there...what a magnificent city. The architecture, the history, the eateries, shops, pubs, people and the terrific vibe. A place you simply MUST visit. Greetings from Scotland.
badmattam do you know about a law that still stands in the walls of york my familys scottish and english i live about 25 mins away from york and the law is that you can kill a scot with a crossbow behind yorks walls preety gruesome im on guard when i get into micklegate 😂😂
I love York must get back there one day soon for old times sake nice friendly people as well it's a special place thanks for good video Paul p Birmingham England ❤🌞👍
Thank you for posting this video of the city I live in Because I’ve found a clip of my father who passed away only last November I shall keep this to give me found memory’s if my dad thank you so
As with most cities, I find the best time to walk around them is late at night when there are few people around. York especially!. You can sink into its history more.
I was once for the first time in Valencia, Spain, late at night. Leaving the extremely lively hustle and bustle of the Ayuntamiento ( it was Las Fallas Festival time ) I walked alone along a cobbled street under a lite drizzle of rain and listened to someone playing Ave Maria on their violin. It was singularly exquisite.
This reminds me why I don’t visit York at peak times of the year - hardly room to breathe with so many people everywhere! We go every January for a much more relaxed experience!
Thanks for sharing. I was there in 2012, stayed at the Galtres lodge. I am from the states, but York felt like home. I didnt want to leave. Hoping to go again someday.
The most beautiful town in Britain is supposedly Chesterfield, located just near Sheffield. I've stayed once in a nice little BnB in Bakewell, truly a beautiful place I'd love to live there. Proper British
Worked at the hospital , live close , my favourite city in the uk with one of my great friends who I regularly visit , must visit the The piano vegan cafe and of course Betty’s tea shop x
@@AngloSupreme maybe some people want to enjoy beauty in cities and not be constantly reminded of cynical stuff. I have been to York, I love it, I know it isn't perfect but it doesn't mean I cannot enjoy it for its beauty. I feel bad for the people living on streets like this, but people enjoying York's culture won't be able to fix that problem. The city itself will have to.
Hey up, Gender Solid. Was it Marx the Karl who said that Opium is the Religion of The People. Take away the Religion - Bingo ! You have today`s Great City of York, and New York, and Dublin and Bogota. San - Francisco and Paris.....
I feel very good to see this when I look from a poverty ridden country may watch these scenes be a blessings and beneficial for our minds Junaid from Pakistan
Born and bred in York and in 1966 emigrated as a nineteen-year-old to Australia with my family. Personally, I realised about eight years ago that it was a big mistake, not that I haven't done well in Australia far from it...BUT my heart is still in York. I miss England so very much, the green rolling hills, the incredible historic buildings, the beautiful winding and pristine rivers, the patchwork fields and hedgerows along with the lovely twittering birds. There is nothing quite like the beautiful and sublime country sounds of birds and insects. I'm planning on going back soon if I can convince my wife that she will be able to return to live in Australia when I eventually die. Oh, and another thing, the Liberal/Conservative Government has destroyed Australia.
Can you pls tell me, how alive neighbourhoods are? We live in USA and so very tired of loneliness where you don’t see ppl walking at all only in centers, but we really want to come outside from the house and feel alive. Trying to find something like this in England. Thank you 😊
I am from near york, God’s cuntreh, I wish the historic town an ever better future, but my fear is it will eventually go down the route of Birmingham and London. Let’s enjoy whilst we can brethren
Thank you for filming York, greqt job....really glad to see the city up to now. Reminiscing good old days when i stay as exchanged student in 98-99. Lovely city....
York is a wonderful place in which to just wander. It's one of my favourite cities in England along with Winchester, Wells, Chester, Sheffield and of course London. The history bleeds from the very stones.
My wife and I go to York very often, stay at the dean court hotel right next to the minster, so we’re right at the centre of things, we never tire of it, we’ll be going soon as this COVID is over, we’ve been to many places but always look forward to York. Salford uk
You joke not Sir! I have lived there for the last 10 years and it has become phenomenally expensive. The prices for accommodation, housing, restaurants et cetera are all pretty close to central London standard. A delightful city that has to be in enjoyed sparingly at least By those that live elsewhere
After living here for longer than I'd say about 3 weeks you will want to move back where you came from, so bit of advice don't move to York literely one of the worst places to live in the UK.
Alison N it’s amazing in so many ways! I moved here 8 years ago. The downsides are that you need terribly deep pockets, as house prices/rental prices take up around 2/3 of the average persons wage - so if like me, you live alone, be prepared to really scrimp to live here. Wages are on the lower end of the scale here and most of it is centred around the hospitality industry. Most things are priced with tourists with money to spend in mind, which puts a lot of activities out of reach for a resident. Also, the hoards that come here binge drinking from other cities (think hen and stag parties) makes it unpleasant to be in from mid afternoon at the weekends. A lot of residents avoid it for this reason. Shops, like. most high streets now, are closing rapidly, to be left either empty or to become yet another drinking/eating establishment. There are hundreds considering the size of the city. We are saturated with them. Don’t get me wrong, I love my adopted city, and the sacrifices I make to live here are worth it on the whole, but it’s not all this film makes it out to be. There are some truly run down and/or ugly areas, even in the centre. Look up Rougier Street and Piccadilly. There are plenty more like that. Lots of housing estates and coronation street type houses round the corner from the over priced luxury apartments. Don’t get me wrong, I love love love my adopted city, and the sacrifices I make to live here are worth it on the whole. - but it’s not all this film makes it out to be.
It's nice at Christmas but cold lol. It's a shame York council have cut the funding for the festival of Angel's this was a big crowd draw at Christmas but the st Nicholas Christmas market is great
@@coyftigers8928 WHATS ALL THIS--'BUT IT'S COLD' COBBLER'S?? IT'S IN THE NORTH---OF ENGLAND, YOU ARE REFERING TO DECEMBER IE CHRISTMAS--AND IT'S COLD?? BLOODY HELL, NOT HOT THEN ?
You definitely must Shradhha, England is simply beautiful, especially if you love historic buildings, cobbled narrow city streets and green rolling countryside. My family and I left England for Australia in 1966 and sadly my heart and soul is still in England. Hopefully returning to live if my wife agrees.
one of the best places i have ever been. so many good memories, Eating a filled Yorkshire pudding and going into the York Minster, drinking a half pint of Ruddles... wonderful place.
I didn't find that patronising, York is my hometown and I moved away about 8 yrs ago. I suppose the fact I'm watching this means I'm home sick and how amazing a city it is. Loved spending my childhood there and growing up in such a diverse historical city. Can't wait to go and visit friends again now I'm back in England
I hope I will visite it soon my old english friend is from York Dorset .I hope Iost in touch with him .I hope he is alive. thanks for this strolling throught york nks
Such a wonderful video and an incredible city to visit. Having visited York on a number of occasions, I could not recommend it enough. The kids loved it as well as the grown ups, particularly the shambles street. Which is arguably similar to the streets that appear in Harry Potter. Although, if you do visit the city I would strongly recommend having a car to hand. It provides freedom to visit the outside regions of the city where some of the most wonderful activities are. Should you be visiting from abroad consider a local car hire provider, such as 4x4vehiclehire.co.uk/4x4-hire-york/. Thank you for the wonderful video and I wish everybody a great visit to York.
Only rent a car if you intend on using it outside of town, as a York resident it is terrible trying to cross York when the the centre is always busy, the best way to get to your location through the day is to use the A64 which will always be the longer route but about 10x + quicker.
York is nice what ever time of year you go lovely at Christmas but cold lol if you go in the summer and you have the time a day on the river is nice try the red boats
I don't live in York but my wife and myself love York and visit at least twice a month. We are very lucky and live in Scarborough on the Yorkshire coast which is less than an hours drive to York or 45 minutes on the train. Our Son lives and works in London and because he works permanently from home, is moving north to York and will commute into his head office once a month. The train fare to London once a month and the rent for a 2 bedroom apartment in York is cheaper than his rent for a room in a multi-occupied flat in London. He is so looking forward to moving to York and of course...back home to Yorkshire.
Was lucky to visit York around christmas time 2019 from Boston US. I was blown away how charming the city is.
I’m from York, and lived in Boston for 3 months, was equally impressed
I've lived in York all of my life and can honestly say I never want to live anywhere else. Love this city!

It's expensive to live anywhere near the actual city, but I have many relatives that live within a half hour or so of the city.
It’s beautiful !
Thank you for sharing 🙏
I’ve never been to York but after watching this video i will now great video looks fantastic
It's nice at Christmas but cold lol
That was very enjoyable to watch - and no jerky movements in the filming. Beautiful! Thank you Michael.
Anne Walshe ...thank you Miss Anne
I plan on coming to York this Christmas thanks for this😊
It's nice at Christmas but cold lol. It's a shame York council have cut the funding for the festival of Angel's this was a big crowd draw at Christmas but the st Nicholas Christmas market is great
@@coyftigers8928 WHATS ALL THIS--'BUT IT'S COLD' COBBLER'S?? IT'S IN THE NORTH---OF ENGLAND, YOU ARE REFERING TO DECEMBER IE CHRISTMAS--AND IT'S COLD?? BLOODY HELL, NOT HOT THEN ?
Thank for the this video tour, My dream to visit the City of York.
watching a video of york from new york. 😛
You could probably fit York into the smallest borough of new York it's small but as the American tourists say quaint nice at Christmas but cold lol
New York is named after York, it's the new York in America , fact

AMAZING! I really really Love York. Thank you for sharing that.
I wish to travel this beautiful country once in my life ❤❤
It's nice at Christmas but cold lol
You definitely must Shradhha, England is simply beautiful, especially if you love historic buildings, cobbled narrow city streets and green rolling countryside. My family and I left England for Australia in 1966 and sadly my heart and soul is still in England. Hopefully returning to live if my wife agrees.
God willing you will. You will be welcome 💐
one of the best places i have ever been. so many good memories, Eating a filled Yorkshire pudding and going into the York Minster, drinking a half pint of Ruddles... wonderful place.
👍👍👍👍👍

MY GOD... IT LOOKS LIKE HARRY POTTER LAND! What a beautiful little gem the British have. The cathedral there is simply stunning.
Could you be any more patronising?
Yes it's really QUAINT and LOVELY, I agree .
I didn't find that patronising, York is my hometown and I moved away about 8 yrs ago. I suppose the fact I'm watching this means I'm home sick and how amazing a city it is. Loved spending my childhood there and growing up in such a diverse historical city. Can't wait to go and visit friends again now I'm back in England

tom duggan ...thank you Tom, thanks for your appreciative words.
I would love to move here from Canada
You would love it because it would be slightly warmer than Canada and far more interesting on many levels.
Go to Quebec city it is as beautiful .
a niu fuck Quebec. And fuck all of eastern Canada. You’re playing hockey on thin ice bud
York is the best place to visit for a visit ether for a day or longer. My favourite places are the shambles and the minister . but it hard to choose .
Great video looks a great place

I love York. I visit many times. Full Of History x
I love you I miss you England

I have been to York in the 70s and the town is very beautiful with great historic buildings..
Yea, i love tiny streets, I can't stop thinking about harry potter, it just looks like the set
thomas Talbot one of the streets inspired diagon alley
You mean the shambles?
It's not as good as you think & the tiny streets are limited to the city centre.
EXCELLENT VIDEO, HOLIDAYED THERE SEVERAL TIMES, GREAT HISTORIC CITY, ONLY EQUALLED BY BATH
Such a wonderful video and an incredible city to visit. Having visited York on a number of occasions, I could not recommend it enough. The kids loved it as well as the grown ups, particularly the shambles street. Which is arguably similar to the streets that appear in Harry Potter. Although, if you do visit the city I would strongly recommend having a car to hand. It provides freedom to visit the outside regions of the city where some of the most wonderful activities are. Should you be visiting from abroad consider a local car hire provider, such as 4x4vehiclehire.co.uk/4x4-hire-york/. Thank you for the wonderful video and I wish everybody a great visit to York.
Diagon alley you mean?
Only rent a car if you intend on using it outside of town, as a York resident it is terrible trying to cross York when the the centre is always busy, the best way to get to your location through the day is to use the A64 which will always be the longer route but about 10x + quicker.
York is just gorgeous.
👍👍👍👍👍

chris j cambridge is also very nice.please check the video of it on my channel :)
thank you , i'll check it out! i have no doubts that it is an awesome place!
York is nice what ever time of year you go lovely at Christmas but cold lol if you go in the summer and you have the time a day on the river is nice try the red boats
I don't live in York but my wife and myself love York and visit at least twice a month. We are very lucky and live in Scarborough on the Yorkshire coast which is less than an hours drive to York or 45 minutes on the train. Our Son lives and works in London and because he works permanently from home, is moving north to York and will commute into his head office once a month. The train fare to London once a month and the rent for a 2 bedroom apartment in York is cheaper than his rent for a room in a multi-occupied flat in London. He is so looking forward to moving to York and of course...back home to Yorkshire.
3:56 bless you.
Jim Jurkowski lol!
Michael Jiroch what you may not know is that William Brewster one of the Pilgrim Fathers once worked in York Minister.
thanks for that wonderful Fun Fact.
