Durham has more than the cathedral and castle. A riverside walk encircles the pedestrianised centre, connecting Elvet and Framwellgate bridges; delightfully tranquil. The market place is attractive, the covered market interesting and the Market Tavern a place for traditional pub meals. Other pubs to seek out are the Dun Cow and the Victoria, but there are plenty of others. Central Library and Gala theatre at Claypath are modern buildings, just off the Market Place, from which three interesting narrow roads exit. There is, of course, more to be found if you look . . .
Durham is my city. The centre has so much to offer - hope you also got to see the wonderful Old Durham Gardens and Crook Hall and Gardens (National Trust property). Love the Botanic gardens too and we have the best woods too for Bluebells as well as Low Burnhall Woods which has fantastic sculptures including the most famous - the large "wickerman".
Free access to the cathedral - no tickets required. The view from a train entering Durham station from the south is a 'world heritage view' - don't miss it.
We used the park and ride from Sniperly...only £2.40 for all day, machine easy to use or pay driver , who are helpful and friendly and it's not far so you can easily do some shopping in the morning, pop back to your car, then return to enjoy rest of the city, we walked but you can get a bus up to the cathedral ..
thank you glad you enjoyed my city

This is awesome! There's so much history (and movie set history!). Loved the video style, btw.
Kind words, thank you
Your map has Durham placed roughly where York is.
