 Dover,
famous for its white cliffs and busy port is not so well known as a holiday
resort, but here you will find a varied holiday destination.
Much of Dover has been rebuilt since the Second World War to replace wartime
damage but also to provide for the increase in traffic to the port. Dover's
natural harbour and strategic position has meant that it has always played
an important role in the nation's defences. Dover Castle, positioned high
on the cliffs above the sea, was built in 1187 by Henry II and was still
being used for defence purposes during World War II as the command post
for the Dunkirk evacuation.
Today you can explore its soaring ramparts and creepy dungeons. Other attractions
include the Dover Museum where you can see displayed the preserved timbers
of a Bronze Age Boat discovered in 1992. Dover's smart seafront and Regency
crescent give it a sophisticated setting. There's the stylish Wellington
Dock area, with Kent's largest factory shopping outlet specialising in designer
labels at discounted prices or why not browse around the antique shops.
You'll always find a place to stop for refreshments from cosy tea rooms,
lively seafront pubs and bars to restaurants offering worldwide cuisine.
Dover has a wide range of accommodation from luxury hotels, guest houses,
B & B's to self-catering flats and cottages. |
