Norwich, England is the most complete medieval city in the UK and one of Britains best university cities. The area was settled by the Anglo-Saxons over 1400 years ago. Unusually, the city has two universities, the University of East Anglia and the Norwich University of the Arts, and two cathedrals, the Anglican Norwich Cathedral and the Catholic St John the Baptist Cathedral. It also has a castle - Norwich Castle. It is known for Norwich Market - one of the country's largest outdoor markets, and the Arts and Craft styled Royal Arcade.

I have seen a lot of videos of lovely and interesting English places lately, often ruined by the use of loud and inappropriate music. I hope your 'no music' policy catches on. The content is entertaining enough already.
Well hello there Niccy, how nice to receive your message. I'm so pleased you like the'no music' approach.
I too rather like the place to 'speak for itself'. Thanks for dropping by to let us know you do too, it's encouraging. All the best to you.

Just perfect as always!
Great video. Please though with your captions on the bottom of the screen, please can you put them higher up above the 'play' bar time scale at the bottom? ... Only half of what you have put there shows up when we watch it. Many thanks!
I lived here briefly in the 90s, one of the most beautiful cities I've ever seen
Good to hear from you all the way from NZ, I do rather like the city too, so I'm happy to hear you have good memories of it. All the very best to you.
I've never seen Norwich before, but I think I'm falling in love!
Well hello there katsujinkin60, glad to hear you've fallen in love with the city, we have too. Happy to have introduced you to it.
@@LivingWalks Most cities nowadays look pretty much the same. Norwich seems to have real character, and something interesting to see anywhere you look. I would love to wander it's cobblestone streets. There's something magical about the place. Thank you so much for the introduction!
@@katsujinkin60 there's also a medieval underground street which has been discovered recently here. Its like a little Diagon Alley!
@@TheHesK9 OMG! I was already in love with the place!
Its a place with beauty and mystery and will capture your heart .
Thank you for the silence and bringing me "HOME". I live in San Francisco and am desperately Norwich sick , and this was fabulous !!!!
Good morning Deb, how nice to wake up to your message. It was our hope to be able to bring people close to cities and so we're really pleased to have brought Norwich back to you for a while. Thank you for taking the time to be in touch. All the best to you.
I hear you Deb. Living in El Paso, TX and am also desperately homesick for Norwich. Just proves the "you can take the girl out of Norwich, but you can't take Norwich out of the girl". :) Thanks to Living Walks for such a lovely video.
Hi again @@goldielocks6467 what a heartwarming message, we're so pleased to bring a little bit of your home town back to you, it makes doing the films worthwhile to know they have a bit of meaning to folk. Hope to bring you more from Norwich in the future. All the best to you.
I had to work away for 3 months, and couldn't wait to go home to Norwich 💛💚
One of my favourite cities in the UK. A good over all tour, thanks for yet another interesting tour LW!
Hi there MA, it's one of our favourite cities in the UK too. Especially like some of the rather nice indie coffee shops. Thanks for staying in touch.
Hi, L.W. ! Thank you for this great tour of Norwich City ! You covered a very good route showing so many different aspects, the quirky layout, lovely old buildings, and so many narrow cobbled streets and courtyards 😊. Thanks again for a good walking experience 👍. Cheers, Don 👋
Well good morning to you Don, yes it's a quirky little town isn't it with some lovely old buildings and lanes. How are things with you, do you get to go into the bigger towns much?
Wow...thanks for touring me around the beautiful city of Norwich. I enjoyed watching your video. Keep up the good work. 👍🥰
Thank you too for your round trip tram ride from and to Dubai Marina tram station!
Love this city.. it's why we moved here a year ago! ..great tour, Jamie's Italian in the arcade has now been replaced with Yalm, worth checking out if you're ever in the city ❤
Thanks for the recommendation, will do!
I am really excited going on this journey with you! It's so great to see the world thru your lens.
Thank you AW, it's always a pleasure to hear from you.
very interesting buildings..very beautiful..nice market..thanks for sharing..
Thanks friend, how are things in Jakarta? I'll pop by to your channel later.
Por ser cidade medieval, ela tem charme agradável e bom seu passeio. Bom final de semana!
Oi amigo, sim nós gostamos bastante e estamos muito felizes que você também tenha gostado.
@@LivingWalks
Boa semana amigo.
Im visiting UK soon and this helps a lot of knowing Norwich 👍👍👍
Thanks for sharing 😍
Glad it was helpful, it's a lovely city and I'm sure you'll enjoy it. All the best to you.
So cool to see places I have been to😅
Hi there Barney the dinosaur, happy to bring it to your door and hope to bring you many more wanderings.
Love your content, really enjoyed the video!!
Thank you so much Friend, enjoyed your recent windsor tour too.
This is my favourite channel.I wish you a lot of success with the channel and happy life.
How kind of you to say so friends and to have stayed in touch, we certainly value our friendships made here. All the best to you.
Thank You... Good to see Langley's back.
Ah indeed so Rose, thanks for dropping by.
thanks for the local history walk nice seeing a lot of old haunts x
Our pleasure Kathy, you're most welcome.
If you ever go back to Norwich just after the river on Coslany st, you walk past an archway before getting to to the road and then going up the stairs. I recommend going through the archway to the street there is a massive anchor on a wall, head to that and you will see stairs (pushchair friendly) with Gybsons conduit. It has some history on it and it's from the 1500, though it has moved from the original site I think.
Hello there Kelly, that’s really good of you to take the time to let us know about that. I do hope we’ll return sometime and we’ll bear that in mind for sure. All the best to you and hope to stay in touch.
Beautiful city and good video
Thanks for visiting Azam, we do love Norwich, it's certainly one of our favourite UK cities. All the best to you.
What a beautiful city! We’re looking for a city move to next year and Norwich should be on the shortlist as your video just convinced us!! We’ll visit there very soon to look around in person! Thanks!
Hello 듀이, how nice to know that the video has been helpful for you. I hope your move works out well for you it's a great little city. All the best to you.
@@LivingWalks Thanks for sharing this beautiful video! We fell in love with Norwich indeed!!
@@chipolata870 Same here, hope things go well for you!
@@chipolata870 All the best to you.
I love this one, awesome! I actually live in an area of New York City called Tudor City and all the architecture of the buildings have that beautiful Tudor style with gargoyles peering over the rooftops and all. Thank you so much for sharing this beautiful area of London with all of us and keep up the great work with all of your videos!
Thanks MS, you might be surprised to hear Norwich is actually a 2 and a half hours drive from London in sleepy Norfolk. A great little city. Interesting to hear about Tudor city, I hadn't heard of that. Enjoyed your recent Union Square New York walk BTW. If you ever feel like doing a London for NY footage exchange let us know. Think it might not quite fit with your channel though... just a thought, we've done it once or twice and it worked well. All the best to you either way.
@@LivingWalks ahhh my bad, my geography of Europe is pretty bad, I'm not gonna lie, haha! Yeah I've lived in 4 separate apartments in Tudor City for over 20 years now; every time that I want to move to a bigger and better apt, I for some reason don't ever move out of the neighborhood. A footage exchange sounds interesting but yeah not sure if it would make sense for our channels. Just curious, how did you do exchanges previously, do you ship drives or just upload everything to Google drive or something like that for example?
@Eat Me :) this has already been rectified and I already apologized for making the error. You are commenting on comments from over a month ago. Don't you have anything else better to do with your self?
I'm in love with the norwich city football club and now I'm in love with the city, I dream of meeting there, hugs from Brazil
Ah same here Caio, it's a great city, thanks for dropping by. Maybe one day we'll get to meet there!
Nice vid thanks love Norwich
Glad you enjoyed it Robert, thanks for dropping by.
@@LivingWalks My pleasure thanks
❤️🤗love your video🤗❤️
Thanks for the visit DaNeen, good of you to drop by.
Love Norwich
Me too Andy! Thanks for dropping by.
Tenes razon la mejor ciudad.✌🏻
Bueno, tan contento que piensas tan amigo!
just wow!! pro-quality walk!
Well thank you fellow walker, hope things are going well for you in Singapore?
chic tour!
Thank you E! So pleased you enjoyed Norwich. All the best to you.
Fab walking tour of Norwich! My home city. It's a bit naughty when you walked over the ruins near The Monastery at 24:18 rather than stick to the proper path! ;) I'll let you off because lots of people do it. They will erode away even quicker if everyone does that
Hello there James, ooh we do consider ourselves told... quite rightly. Glad you enjoyed the tour anyway. All the best to you.
beautiful city : )
Thanks friend. Enjoyed your recent riverfront walk btw, the footage positively glowed. I'll be back to see more I'm sure fellow walker. Let's stay in touch. Perhaps a colab someday?
Very interesting video. Great clarity, very little jiggling while walking. I'm a bit claustrophobic, so some of those tight streets and walkways made me nervous. I kept wondering why the original inhabitants built everything so close. While I don't have the answer, I can understand why the Black Death was able to spread so easily at that time. Not just in Norwich, of course, but all over Europe. The old city buildings were beautiful, but modernity continually impinged--as I guess it must. Thanks for an interesting and informative tour. This particular Yank enjoyed it.
Well hello there Harold, what a pleasure to receive your message. Yes some of those tight streets and walkways are pretty snug aren't they. The Black Death certainly had a good running in them I'm sure. It's a real joy to share these cities and to receive such interesting feedback. I hope you'll meander with us again, we have a couple of hundred places we've filmed now, so hope one or two might be of interest. All the best to you.
@Harold Burton The Modernity does not seem to impinge that much and where it does it is relatively sympathetic. However you should be aware that not all that change was by choice. As during the Second World War Norwich along with a number of medieval cities Exeter, Canterbury were targeted by the Luftwaffe in the Baedeker bombing raids.
Enjoyed it! Great Virtual Tour! 👍👍😊😊 AWESOME! Very Interesting!
Thanks chum. Enjoyed your board walk new jersey btw, even on a cloudy day. Fancied a cuppa with you at 4:04 for sure.
Don't think I have been on a walking tour around Norwich! Braw wee toon so it is 😃
Ha, a Braw wee toon it is indeed. Always a pleasure to receive your message... Lang may yer lum reek friend!
@@LivingWalks By jings, ye ken ma mither tounge so ye dae! An lang may yer lum reek tae ma freend
@@walkingwithtamson Noo jist haud on!... you're stretching ma here ma freend!!
@@LivingWalks Oooft, yer giein it laldie the nicht ur ye no? HAWL
@@walkingwithtamson ... thought I'd try to explode google translate, but it just thought it was german... Oooft, du gibst es, Laldie, du bist nicht, nein.
I liked the walk, but a little more footage of the castle would have been appreciated. Yes, it is touristy, but at the same time it is one of the main reasons there is a Norwich.
Thanks for the feedback David. We do take note. I'd certainly like to go back and do a second walk concentrating more on the castle. Watch this space!
@@LivingWalks Would you consider a video walking the old castle walls to include Magdalen Gates and Cow Tower, and how the new sections of Norwich have woven around the old?
Morning @@goldielocks6467, we'd certainly consider doing that when we return, which we hope we can sometime soon. Thanks for the feedback and suggestion!
Had questions, is Norwich city safe for us Asians? Is it safe there or whatsoever, please do let me know. Best regards.
I feel sure it would be Sania and I do hope you enjoy your visit, it's a lovely city.
I like this as we're planning a visit to Norwich but there's a mistake on one caption, which says Norfolk was a city instead of Norwich. And then a grammatical error - you say it's wealth and it should be its wealth. Sorry, I'm a writer and am pedantic about errors!
Hello there Michael, how nice of you to take the time to let us know, I’ll go in and change that. Thank you it’s appreciated.
Ah how frustrating, I’ve just realised that the captions were embedded on this one. Thanks anyway Michael.
Isn't it Norwich city in the county of Norfolk
That's right cromerbeach!
Isn't cromerbeach in Cromer 😉
I'm looking for a job in Norwich near by NR1 to NR7 please help me if possible
Best of luck.
he stepped on the freaking grass
?
No parece muy bonito
Bueno, ciertamente no es tan bonito como algunas grandes ciudades españolas, pero nos encanta el ambiente.
@@LivingWalks hay ciudades bonitas en Inglaterra. Norwich no está mal. Yo estuve viviendo un año en Leicester, que no me gustó mucho. Pero York, Chester o Lincoln me gustaron bastante. Me quedó por visitar Cambridge, Ely, Durham y Canterbury. Ahora con el Brexit no creo que vuelva por allí . En España hay ciudades muy feas, la mayoría son turísticas de costa como Torremolinos. Como dudo que vuelva a las islas británicas visitaré este canal para conocer otros lugares de UK. Muchas gracias 👏
@@TheGaztela Norwich is basically the same as York, but with more things to do
One boring place
Ah well I guess it's not everyone's cup of tea stephen!
