    St Pancras Station is a magnificent piece of engineering as well as architecture. Built in the early 1860s it was typical Victorian grandeur and the iron arches were the largest cast at the time at 245 feet.
    Where you queued for your customs and passes was originally a freight depot and especially for beer from Burton so the supporting iron columns in what was called 'the undercroft' were set at 14 feet between them being the size of multiple beer barrels.

    Eurostar is THE way to travel between London and Paris but it isn’t the cheapest. But bear in mind it is city centre to city centre.

    Hi Travel Family, Im slated to travel on the Eurostar to Paris in early September, looking forward to it. Unlike in Canada or USA for that matter, the european know how to make train travel between destinations that are less than 4 to 6 hours attractive. No need for airport hassles and so on. The following day I am on the Trenitalia Frecciorossa 1000 from Paris to Milan for my birthday definitely looking forward to it. Oh, Im staying overnight at the St Pancras Reniassance hotel which is next door.

    • @AmericanTravelFamily
      @AmericanTravelFamily  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Americans, who believes that everything is deserved and granted.
      And usually stereotypes are based on true situation. Usually it is enough 5-10% of people to have a similar behaviour to have a stereotype. In your case, you and your family are in the 5-10% of americans tourists which travel like this, so you are the stereotype. So thanks to you, this stereotype exists and affects good americans who travel respectfully.
