Carlisle City

The small but attractive town of Carlisle is located in the North-West of England, being the capital of the region of Cumbria. Its foundation dates from the Roman settlement and its history has been developed in parallel to that of Scotland. Today the city blends traditional features with modern ones, the most notable attractions being the Old Town Hall Square, the cathedral and castle. It has a very dynamic nightlife and is a charming small town, but with a personality (including a peculiar accent of the North of England, I have to admit that is one of my favorites). Given its proximity to the famous Lake District, where the larger lakes of England lie and a completely idyllic place where many films have been shot such as Miss Potter, this city is a lovely alternative.
