Wet Roman ruins in Chester



Today it's been another long day under the rain, in fact, it was drizzle but we've been able to do a tour around the city with the great explanations by Tom and Mark, some of the teachers at campus.

Chester is a nice and friendly city full of old Roman steps!
I've visited the amphitheater, walked around the Roman walls, seen the castle and the cathedral, went up the clock and relaxed at the gardens.

I've been amazed with the old typical houses that can be found in each street in the city center. They've got two levels shops, on the ground floor and on the first floor with arcades. Besides, they all kept the old medieval style: black and white wood lines to design the front!

I'm a bit tired, so next time I'll write longer!
