Hi Joaoa

So you've been to Canterbury. Nice city in the South East of England.
I was a tourist there in 1999 and I'd like to share a pic I took here, exactly at the "West Gate" -the name of the landmark this photo shows.

What I remember when I see this pic is that this landmark separates the city in 2 parts -the old Canterbury and the new Canterbury- according to what a guide told us. It's an impressively solid structure.

Now that I travel back in time, I remember some of the details presented by the person showing us the city after reading data from the internet:

It was a very cold and windy Saturday morning in January 1999 when I jumped off a train at the station in Canterbury and, after a short walk, these enormous towers were the first to be seen before exploring the lovely downtown with an enthusiastic group of tourist mates who were with me.

What was it like when you were before the WestGate Joaoa?

Hi Alicia
Yes, I was in Canterbury last Summer. I loved the city. The weather was nice and I felt very well there. We also had a guide (who had been one of our teachers at the course) who told us a lot about Canterbury. Although I can't remember any details, I keep in mind that it all was very interesting. Canterbury is definitely a town worth visiting.
