Colchester

Colchester is the largest town in Essex and is known as the oldest recorded Roman town in Britain. 'Colchester' means 'Roman town on the river Colne'.  There are also two railway stations: Colchester (North Station) and Colchester Town. North Station is a complicated station, with little information about platforms, and also far from town centre.

Basically East Anglia is flat country, but Colchester town and the castle is on a hill, so it is considered that it was convenient to built fortifications. We popped in nice old book shop and had a lunch at the pub. You can have nice walking around the historical town and rest in a beautiful huge castle garden.
