Visiting York, England/Carlos Pueblo

Visiting York, England/Carlos Pueblo

Yorkshire is one of the most recommended to visit in the United

Kingdom. We can easily understand the history of this great Empire

by the well preservation of architecture, streets design, and

illustrations., i.e. the Clifford’s tower for the Romans era; the Jorvik

Viking Center for the Viking invaders after Romans; the eldest son of

William, the conqueror; the Micklegate Bar of the civil war;  the

distinguish Cathedral York Minster for the medieval era; Monkgate

for Richard III and more. These significant scenery are all within

working distance and very easy to approach. I also had visited the

city wall twice, the campus of the famous University of York and I

took a day off to visit the city of Leeds.

Constantine acclaimed his Romans Emperor with the support of his

father’s legion at York when he died. He went back to Rome to square

of the interior difference and settled at the east currently day Istanbul,

Turkey. I am satisfied for now my historical knowledge of him, his

Eastern Romans Empire, Byzantine, Ottomans Empire, and Turkey and

I have had the connection. I still like to know the definition of Renaissance

In connection to him. There is a Clifford’s Town, the remain of the Romans

Castle now called the York Castle on top of a small hill surrounded by

the Museum, the courthouse, and city hall, etc.

The Viking, current day Denmark, invaded York and England after expelled

the Romans. Jorvik is pronounced as York. In the U.K. we can see some tall

and blonde population, I think that they are related to the Vikings or Dan.

Now, move to Richard III. I just learn that he is the last English King residing

at York. I need to know the difference between the Lion King Richard and

him. His death was the end of the famous Rose War. There is a small museum

on Monkgate where I didn’t go inside yet passed by twice while I walked on

the city wall. The Micklegate bar is near where I stayed. On the wall, there is

a plate described how the gate was saved during the civil war of England. We

know the story of Oliver Cromwell and the movie about him during the conflict

between the Parliamentarians and the Royalists. The Parliamentarians did surround

York and forced the Royalists to surrender in order to save the Micklegate. There

were residents on the gate right after WWI. Now, it is kept as a small museum.

York Minster is gorgeous and I’ll have a piece to describe it. It is a Catholic Cathedral.
