This quirky East Anglian city often gets missed off the classic list on UK tourist destinations. However, Norwich has so much to offer. Walkable, charming and packed with history and culture, we’re here to tell you just a few of the reasons you should add Norwich to your itinerary next time you’re in the UK.

Fascinating Medieval History

In Medieval times, Norwich was the most important city in Britain. And much of that fascinating Medieval history remains accessible to us, in the form of stunning Medieval churches, the old city walls, and the amazingly intact Norwich castle, which doubles as an excellent museum.

Flourishing Arts & Culture Scene

Norwich has a vibrant arts and culture scene, with plenty of opportunities to see theatre, dance, visual arts and live music to choose from. Head to the Sainsbury Center for Visual Arts for some creative inspiration or dance the night away to the hottest up-and-coming bands at Norwich Arts Center.

Plenty of Fantastic Pubs

They say Norwich has a church for every week of the year but a pub for every day of the year. Norwich’s ubiquitous watering holes are characterful, welcoming, and full of local beers and ales to sample.
