2. The Vikings were fierce
warriors which came from
Scandinavia. They
conquered many places
including York which they
called Jorvik. If you like
Vikings then you will love
Jorvik, you can do so
many things including a
ride around a real replica
of a Viking village!
3. The Dig was a fun
experience where you got
to pretend to be a real
archaeologist. There were 4
different time periods:
Victorian, Middle ages,
Vikings and the Romans. It
was lots of fun but my
favourite thing was when I
got to look at real bones as
well as fossilised
human poo!
4. York Cathedral is a massive Cathedral.
Unfortunately I didn't have time to go there, but
just looking at it made me amazed. Here are some
statistics: Width - 249 feet (76 metres), Length - 525
feet (160 metres), 3 towers, West towers - Nearly
184 feet each (56 metres).
5. When I went to York I had so much fun. First we
had a 2 hour drive to a park and ride which is
basically where you park your car then take a
bendy bus into the city. It took about 15 minutes.
When we got off we went to Clifford’s Tower
which was a small tower on top of a mound which
is a big grass hill. Next we had a small sandwich.
6. After the sandwich we went to Dig which was
very good. After the Dig we went to Jorvik
which I enjoyed a lot. To finish the day off we
had some pizza and went home.
7. York is a fun place to go because there is so
many things to do and explore. My favourite
thing was Jorvik.
If you go to York you will have a great
experience!
