While not the worlds most refined foods, there are a couple of culinary experiences you must try on a trip to England. At breakfast time, you'll need to try the English Breakfast at least once during your stay, but don't plan on being too active afterwards as it includes sausage, bacon, fried eggs, beans, tomatoes, mushrooms, toast and often a slice of white or black pudding. It's also essential that you try Fish and Chips during your visit, and while you might think Englands seaside towns are the best place to give this dish a go, London has plenty of pubs and chip shops of an excellent standard.

While not having the same reputation as Irish Whiskey and Scotch, whisky was produced in Wales from the middle ages to the late 1800s, and ceased partly due to the influence of the temperance movement. In the 1990s there began an attempt to revive the industry and the Penderyn distillery was established. In 2016 the Dà Mhile distillery near Llandysul in west Wales bottled its first whisky.

The Aber Falls distillery in Abergwyngregyn, Gwynedd commenced production in late 2017 and is scheduled to release its first whisky in 2020. All 3 also produce gin, and with a number of other gin businesses, such as Foragers and Dyfi Distillery, established in recent years, the industry has grown swiftly with 17 producers now dotted around the country.

Up to the 10th century, Gaelic culture dominated in Scotland. The 13th century saw battles to keep out Norman-English invaders. Royal marriages saw the relationship between the 2 countries further intertwined and in 1707 England and Scotland became Great Britain. A revolt in the mid 1700s which tried to return Scotland to being an independent nation, was defeated at the Battle of Culloden. While no longer independent, Scotland has retained its unique, traditional music, traditional Scottish dance and the Highland Games which encapsulate traditional shows of strength, such as tossing the caber, shot-putting, hammer-throwing, and weight-throwing.

Most people don't realise that England produces some great wines on par with the best that France has to offer. Winemaking was introduced to England by the Romans, and production continued for centuries until a decline in the mid 1800s. Viticulture was revived in the 1970s, and the first English wines in that decade were influenced by the sweet German wines like Liebfraumilch and Hock. At the last count, there were just over 450 vineyards producing wine throughout England.

Some stunning castles which are still in an excellent condition throughout England include Warwick Castle, Lincoln Castle and Norwich Castle. Norwich Castle is a uniquely shaped building, and is now home to Norwich Museum. It has been the site of a siege and a revolt, acted as a safehaven for Jews during a 12th century pogrom and was a prison from the 13th century onwards.

After the arrival of the Normans conquerors in England, the Welsh lands eventually came under the control of the English, but this was something the Welsh revolted against a number of times. The story is further complicated by the fact that numerous leaders of England were of Welsh lineage. In 1707, Wales became part of Great Britain and in 1808 part of the United Kingdom. Despite English control, the Welsh maintained a distinct culture and their language. The national museums offer you the opportunity to discover even more about the history of the country.
