A land of monarchs, druid circles and castle ruins, quaint counties and bustling cities, England stirs the imagination. It inspired Shakespeare's tragedies, The Beatles' melodies and Monty Python comedies. Amid endless fields, enchanted forests and cobblestone streets, it sparks tales of rubbing shoulders with royals or clinking pints with locals. For charisma and charm, England reigns.

Fun fact
Royal enthusiast or not—we’ve got a fact for both tastes! Royal fact: the Queen’s love for corgi dogs is well-documented, but did you know that the Queen also owns an army of animals, including some donated by other countries (horses from Canada!) and all the country’s swans? Non-royal fact: Brits drink on average about 165 million cups of tea a day!
