A Walk Through Chester, England
Chester is a walled city in Cheshire, England. Lying on the River Dee, close to the border with Wales, it is the largest and most populous settlement of the unitary authority area of Cheshire West and Chester, which had a population of 328,100 according to the 2001 Census,[increasing to 329,608 at the 2011 Census. Chester was granted city status in 1541.
Chester was founded as a castrum or Roman fort with the name Deva Victrix, during the reign of the Emperor Vespasian in AD79. One of the three main army camps in the Roman province of Britannia, Deva later became a major civilian settlement. In 689, King Æthelred of Mercia founded the Minster Church of West Mercia, which later became Chester's first cathedral, and the Saxons extended and strengthened the walls, much of which remain, to protect the city against the Danes. Chester was one of the last cities in England to fall to the Normans. William the Conqueror ordered the construction of a castle, to dominate the town and the nearby Welsh border.
Chester is one of the best preserved walled cities in Britain. It has a number of medieval buildings, but some of the black-and-white buildings within the city centre are Victorian restorations. Apart from a 100-metre (330 ft) section, the listed Grade I walls are almost complete. The Industrial Revolution brought railways, canals, and new roads to the city, which saw substantial expansion and development – Chester Town Hall and the Grosvenor Museum are examples of Victorian architecture from this period.

Places to see in ( Chester - UK ) Walls of Chester
Chester city walls consist of a defensive structure built to protect the city of Chester in Cheshire, England. Walls of Chester construction was started by the Romans when they established the fortress of Deva Victrix between 70 and 80 AD.
Walls of Chester originated with a rampart of earth and turf surmounted by a wooden palisade. From about 100 AD they were reconstructed using sandstone, but were not completed until over 100 years later. Following the Roman occupation nothing is known about the condition of the walls until refounded Chester as a burgh in 907. The defences were improved, although the precise nature of the improvement is not known. After the Norman conquest, the Walls of Chester were extended to the west and the south to form a complete circuit of the medieval city. The circuit was probably complete by the middle of the 12th century.
Maintenance of the structure of the Walls of Chester was an ongoing concern. They were further fortified before the Civil War, and were damaged during the war. Following this they ceased to have a defensive purpose, and were developed for leisure and recreation. The Walls of Chester are now a major tourist attraction, and form an almost complete circuit of the former medieval city, with a total walkway length of 2.95 kilometres (1.8 mi). Upkeep and repair of the walls continues to be a problem.

UK SERIES, THIRD EPISODE: CHESTER THE CITY OF THE WALL! DJI OSMO POCKET |4K
Terzo ed ultimo episodio!
Cheser è una città fortificata nel Cheshire, in Inghilterra, sul fiume Dee, vicino al confine con il Galles.
Ha molti edifici medievali, ma alcuni
degli edifici in bianco e nero all'interno del centro città sono stati restaurati in stile vittoriano. Oltre a una sezione di 100 metri (330 piedi), le pareti sono quasi del tutto complete. L'unica interruzione del circuito è nella sezione sudovest di fronte alla County Hall.
Lungo la cima delle mura corre un sentiero che attraversa i ponti di Eastgate, Northgate, St Martin's Gate, Watergate, Bridgegate, Newgate e Wolf Gate, passando per una una serie di monumenti, ovvero la Phoenix Tower (o King Charles 'Tower ), Il Monte Morgan, la Torre dei Goblin (o Pemberton's Parlour), e la Torre di Bonewaldesthorne con uno sperone che porta alla Torre dell'acqua e la Torre di Thimbleby. Sull' Eastgate troviamo l' Eastgate Clock ritenuto l'orologio più fotografato d'Inghilterra dopo il Big Ben.
Gli edifici più importanti nel centro della città sono il municipio e la cattedrale.
Il principale museo di Chester è il Grosvenor Museum, che comprende una collezione di lapidi romane e una galleria d'arte. Il grande parco pubblico di Chester è Grosvenor Park.
Buona visione!
