Hampshire

Hampshire is home to some of the best modern craft and design - as well as theaters, concert halls, museums, galleries, arts centres, cinemas and festivals. It has an enormous wealth of Christian heritage sites ranging from small parish churches and chapels to historic abbeys and cathedrals to numerous ruined sites including Netley and Wolvesey Old Palace. Just outside the Hampshire border are the famous cathedrals at Chichester and Salisbury. Hampshire and the Isle of Wight have a unique heritage with a remarkable collection of castles, military museums, great ships and stately homes, many of which are open to visitors today. There's a wide range of historical sites, buildings and monuments across Hampshire which include listed monuments, ancient settlements and water- and wind-powered mills - even a unique tide mill near Southampton.

London

London is undoubtedly one of the world's finest cities. In addition to numerous monuments from its more glorious past, London is equally well-known for its pageantry and tradition. London has something for everyone - wide boulevards buzzing with excitement far into the night, quiet squares and explorable alleyways. Visit this famous city's parks, museums, galleries, monuments, abbeys and churches, skyscrapers and ruins, Georgian squares. Take in such events as the Ceremony of the Keys at the Tower, or the Changing of the Guard at Buckingham Palace, or even one of the many theatrical productions. Some of the most exclusive shops are found along Oxford, Bond and Regent Streets. An old favorite and one of the world's premier institutions is Harrods - offering everything from Chanel suits and sliced salmon to caviar and even pets.
