York, a historic city in North Yorkshire, has been named the world's second most beautiful winter destination due to its medieval walls, The Shambles, and vibrant Christmas markets. The city also offers ghost tours and Harry Potter attractions.
As the festive season rapidly approaches, cities across the UK are teeming with people busy doing their Christmas shopping and visiting Christmas markets.
"Winter visitors can warm up in one of York's many historic pubs or enjoy the JORVIK Viking Centre, perfect if you need a bit of shelter from the cold while exploring the city." The Shambles, one of Europe's most well-preserved medieval shopping streets, is a renowned landmark in the city. Its narrow cobbled street and timber-framed buildings that jut out several feet over the street give it a fairy-tale-like charm.
