15 Best Things to Do in Canterbury (Kent, England
"The foremost English Medieval poet Geoffrey Chaucer chose this city as the subject of his most famous work, the Canterbury Tales, about a group of pilgrims travelling through Kent to the tomb of Thomas Becket. The Canterbury Tales attraction has a sequence of animatronic tableaux bringing the sights, sounds and smells of 14th-century Kent and Canterbury back to life. Complemented by an audio-guide, the scenes recount five of Chaucer’s tales, dealing with topics like love, courtship, intrigue, infidelity and death, all told with Chaucer’s fabled sense of mischief."

Must see attractions in Canterbury, England
"This ambitious, overpriced three-dimensional interpretation of Chaucer’s classic tales using jerky animatronics and audioguides is certainly entertaining, but could never do full justice to the original work."

Day Trip to Canterbury - A Perfect Day in Kent's Historic Town
"After the gardens, head straight over to the well preserved medieval gatehouse that stands at the entrance to Canterbury’s high street. This epic tower dates back to the 14th century and is the largest surviving city gate in all of England. This impressive gatehouse is actually a replacement from the original Roman wall that circled the city around the year 300 AD."

"Westgate Towers seen from Westgate Gardens See my photos from Canterbury. Westgate Towers in England’s largest surviving medieval gateway. These gates were once used to control the flow of visitors in and out of walled city centers, and Westgate was once accessible only via drawbridge from outside of Canterbury."

"The city’s only remaining medieval gateway (1380) houses a museum that focuses on the building’s use as a prison. The views from the top are pretty good, but if you don’t go inside, you can always entertain..."

Coaches to Canterbury
"If you need to rest your limbs from all the sightseeing, head to Dane John Gardens for a Canterbury beauty spot. Nestled by the city’s walls and with its beautiful lime trees, this former Roman cemetery-turned-public park is a perfect setting for relaxation. Away from the hustle and bustle of the main city thoroughfares, the gardens have stunning views of Canterbury and the Kent countryside from the top of the mound."
