    Good evening! And Merry Christmas! 🎅
    To celebrate the festive season, every Friday this month until Christmas Day, we'll be taking a special festive walk around some of Britain's greatest cities - at night and under the lights! And to help soak up the Christmas atmosphere, there'll be fewer captions on the walks, with just a few notes to help you understand where we are :)
    I'd love to hear your feedback on videos like this too - this is one of my first attempts at night filming, and perhaps you'd like to see more 'raw' walks without captions alongside our normal history walks to help you enjoy the sights a little more!

    This is so beautiful to see this romantic Christmas Feeling in York and in Great Britain ! The illuminated shops and lights , that is for me the Christmas that i know in my childhood ! To be honest , i miss this all , because here in Vienna the famous Christmas Market at the City Hall was cancelled again , and i feel no Christmas atmosphere in Vienna anymore , thats really sad for me ! I hope it will be better next year ! So , Merry Christmas and Happy New Year for you and your family !

      Oh no! I'm so sorry to hear that your Christmas markets in Vienna have been cancelled - I absolutely loved taking in the atmosphere of York's festivities, it always brings a smile to my face :)
      And I really hope that this video helped bring a smile to your face too - wishing you a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year, thank you so much for watching and for your lovely comments!

    York, which I first visited in the summer of 1974 as an Army Cadet, has been a city I've revisited quite a few times over the years. It has, for me just the right size and proportions for a city. Everything seems to be within fairly easy reach. I love places with history and York has plenty of it.

    • @LetsWalkUK
      @LetsWalkUK  Před 2 lety +2

      I'm absolutely with you there! The Roman/medieval layout of the city means that it's designed first and foremost for walking, and as you mention that makes everything easy to reach without heading into the outskirts :) It's a great city full of history, and I hope this walk brought back some nice memories of York for you! Thank you so much for watching :)

    Great video. The lights are wonderful. The streets look so Dickensian and medieval, somehow that makes it seem even more Christmassy. I've been there once, long ago. I'll have to go again, at Christmas time. The atmosphere is so energising.You can almost feel the ladies and gentlemen of yore strolling around the streets with their long dresses and top hats.

    • @LetsWalkUK
      @LetsWalkUK  Před 2 lety +1

      Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed the video - you're absolutely right about the atmosphere of the streets with all the lights, certainly something out of A Christmas Carol! It's certainly a place worth visiting one Christmas, York really goes all out with its decorations and markets :)

    Thank you for sharing this. York is one of my favorites. I used to visit England every two years, but with this virus stuff going on, I have had to stop. Your videos are very helpful until I can visit once again. Even though I do not live in the UK any more, I was born there.
