Lake District in England is said to be one of this year's top places to visit


Grasmere Village was where poet William Wordsworth once lived. — HARJINDER KAUR

The poet William Wordsworth once described the Lake District in England as “the loveliest spot that man hath ever found”. When I visited the place recently, I realised that Wordsworth was right to describe it that way. It really is a lovely spot and it is also a Unesco World Heritage Site.

The Lake District is located in the northwest of England, in the county of Cumbria. It is known for its beautiful scenery. The landscape is verdant and is a feast for the eyes. It was refreshing to be in the countryside away from the hustle and bustle of big cities.
