Salisbury is a vibrant modern community with a long and interesting history.
Also known as New Sarum, the City was built around the new cathedral in the
13th Century and quickly became a powerful regional centre and one of the
largest and most important towns in medieval England.
It is justly famous,
not only for its spectacular cathedral, but also for the wealth of medieval
buildings, its ancient chequers and its uniquely hospitable welcome.
Not
surprisingly, Salisbury has become one of the UKs favourite tourism
destinations, sitting in the heart of the beautiful South Wiltshire
countryside and within easy reach of attractions such as Stonehenge and
Wilton House.
