  2. People may want to visit Yorkshire due to its stunning landscape, amazing architecture and the fact that it is so close to the sea. There were many stately homes shown in the video as well as activities such as archery and sailing.

    I am in 7F and I liked it because I saw Fountains Abbey in the video.I also saw Castle Howard which is in my book about Castles that I used for History prep.The video was exciting and I liked the music. I have been to York in 2006 and I visited the railway museum.

    I liked it because my granny is from Yorkshire and every time we go to visit she tells me and my brother about this places and she was with me while watching this video and she could name every place that appeared.

  7. I think that tourists would like to go and visit Yorkshire because of two main aspects:
    -The first one is that the physical geography of the natural beauty in the town enlightens those who live in polluted or busy places, as it shows a new side of Britain which will attract visitors for its amazing sights and many of the elements of nature, which could be rarer in other places.
    -The second reason is that the human geography of the city inspires many people to come and perceive the initiative shown in buildings, both historical and modern. The opportunities, such as sailing on the coast, shows that, in Yorkshire, there would not be a dull moment.

    These two reasons combined creates an urge for many to visit the area. That is why I think that tourists would want to visit Yorkshire

  9. I think Yorkshire would appeal to tourists due to its stunning scenery, like rivers and cliffs, and also the fact that it is along the coast, so beaches are easily accessible. It also has cities with many historical buildings and impressive structures. Activities include sailing, walking and archery.

  10. This video shows some beautiful landscapes and seascapes of Yorshire. It shows some magnificent and creative architecture. The video has a lot to offer in terms of rural versus urban scenes. I think the music helps advertise Yorkshire very well. This video makes me want to go there. In fact, I've been to York and climbed up to the top of York Minster.

    The yorkshire video was attractive as there is a nice mountainous landscape the is a beautiful cliff leading to the sea, there are funny carvings on rock like that horse, there is a nice waterfall,the town shown looks very busy a complete contrast from the quiet mountains, there is also a lot of historical buildings like that castle, there a nice bridge, i would describe it as a city that is in harmony with old and new

Yorkshire is a lively and fun experience, it is full of fascinating history and amazing attractions such as: Castle Howard, Magna Science Adventure Centre and the best of all, York's Chocolate story! As you can see from the video, there are countless reasons why people should visit Yorkshire the main reasons being the breathtaking scenery of Yorkshire!

  14. I am in 7Y and I liked this beautiful county as it shows me what the true meaning of sight seeing is. As you see in the video the amazing attractions they have to offer are once in a life time opertunity. I absolutely loved the video, you could see a family struggling its way up the cliff as they had a nice day out in Yorkshire. The thing that you must love about York is that it is right next to the sea, whether its in the summer or in the winter you could also enjoy a nice day out in the beach. The music in this video makes it stand out from all the other countys in Britian as it makes me feel alive. Tourists would love to go here as you experience something amazing as the wind blows against your face as you walk along the beach. Yorkshire also has a lot of activities to offer such as archery, sailing and many more outdoor activities. To all you tourists visit yourkishire before i=time runs out experience something you have never experienced before, GO TO YORKSHIRE NOW!!!!!!!! BY Ashraf 7Y
