Newcastle Castle

Newcastle United has won the English Football League Championship. Newcastle was originally an industrial city with an export port for transporting coal. Now it has been transformed into a tourist and cultural city. It has a city light rail, an airport, and a train, with convenient transportation. It is a transit city from London to Edinburgh. Although it is the northernmost city in England, close to Glasgow, it is not cold in winter because it is by the sea. There are many tourist attractions here, including various bridges on the Newcastle River, churches of various styles in the city, a five-kilometer-long shopping street, Chinatown, and a spectacular coastline. The Newcastle Shipyard built four warships for the Qing Dynasty Navy, namely Zhiyuan, Chaoyong, Jingyuan, and Yangwei, all of which were sunk in the Sino-Japanese War of 1894-1895. There are so many things worth remembering in the sky of history. This is a city with many stories.

From Durham, we took a bus north to Newcastle. Compared with Durham Village, Newcastle is a big city. At Durham Railway Station, I also saw several students going to Newcastle for dinner. The train arrived in about ten minutes. Here I actually saw the city wall, Hadrian's Wall. In fact, this is the northernmost border of the British province of the Roman Empire. It is similar to the city wall in China, both of which are used to defend against invasions from the north. Along the Tyne River from west to east is the entrance to the sea. In those days, the King of England built some castles here, consisting of a wooden spire main building and an earthen outer wall. New Castle is the source of the name Newcastle.

Walking to the opposite side of the castle road, there is a long staircase going down, with some walls, an ancient well and several doors next to it. I believe these are also part of the castle and together constitute the history and origin of this city.

Worth seeing, very old. Just winter weather is too cold, summer scenery will be better.

I expected the castle of New Castle to be somewhat extraordinary but it wasn’t as such. I do not think that it is worth £9.95, although they say that it is an annual ticket, because let’s face it very few people get to go back again. I think the castle from outside is worth the watch which is free but paying inside wouldn’t be recommended from my point of view

Buy tickets to enter the 800-year-old castle. The castle is not isolated, you can see it on the periphery, and you can even enter her door. You need to buy tickets only to enter the castle interior, and this small castle has an elevator! The appearance of the castle is very dark in many places, as if it is smoked by gunfire. There is no moss and no grass. How can a wet and rainy climate in the seaside city of newcastle be done?
