3. Edinburgh:
Edinburgh is a fantastic city to visit. As the Scottish capital, it attracts millions of tourists, and you should definitely join them. Edinburgh's Old Town is famous for its lovely cobblestone lanes dotted with independent shops, cafes, and restaurants. Some of the buildings in the Old Town are over 500 years old, and the architecture will make you travel back in time, especially with Edinburgh Castle and bagpipes in the background.
Additionally, Edinburgh Castle is without a doubt one of the top things to do in Edinburgh, but you should also visit the National Museum, climb the Scott Monument, and explore the Royal Mile. Edinburgh is a wonderful representation of Scottish culture, history, and identity.

Newcastle is a superb tourist destination, with numerous museums and art galleries and you should definitely pay a visit to the Great North Museum.
5. Cardiff:
Cardiff is the capital and largest city of Wales noted for television production, sports, museums, and nightlife, located immediately south of the Brecon Beacons National Park.

6. Cambridge:
Cambridge is a prominent university city that is ideal for experiencing the elite student experience in England. The city is sophisticated to the core, and you may spend your days punting on the River Cam and visiting its many museums.
Apart from museums, Cambridge is home to numerous churches, including the Ely Cathedral which is a traditional Gothic cathedral and a popular religious place to visit on a guided tour. The Round Church, which dates from the 12th century, is well worth seeing. The mediaeval church has a peculiar rounded shape and is an interesting piece of architecture to see.
