Chill out in Norwich.

There are plenty of oportunities to relax in Norwich after a hectic shopping spree, or a busy day at campus!!! Here are some ideas:

Norwich is scattered with beautiful parks and gardens, where the grass is green, the flowers are colourful, and if you're lucky, the sky will be blue too. English parks are meant to be used and enjoyed, not just looked at, and you are welcome to sit on the grass and have a picnic, or just lie down and relax.
  • - Chappelfield gardens are within walking distance from the Chappelfield Shopping Centre, and it has a Mexican Canteen in it, where you can eat or just have a drink.
  • - Castle Museum, at Castle Hill, is surrounded by a green area where you can rest after your visit to the museum. There is also an open theatre called the Whiffler Theatre wehre you can sit on the benches and chill out by the trees when there are no plays or shows.
  • - You can drop yourself by the oldest pub in Norwich, Adam and Eve, just behind the cathedral, and have a local beer with the locals.
  • - A beautiful place to have evening tea is the Hostry cafe, at the Cathedral, next to the wonderful cloister.

British Pubs are wonderful places to have a quiet drink in a cosy athmosphere, have a meal, or even a wild time, depending on your mood and choice, here are some nice pubs where you can chill out:

  • - The Briton's Arms, at Elmhill Street, is very near a cenenary Elm, surrounded by a very quiet area, perfect for chill-out time. This area also features several pubs playing live music at night.
  • - The Belgian Monk Pub, (sorry, we don't know the address, but we'll find out soon) offers a large variety of belgian beers and dishes, which you can enjoy in their beautiful and spacious garden.
  • - Finally, the Riverside, near the Railway Station, offers a nice walk by the river, as well as many pubs and restaurants, at a reasonable price which open till late.

We hope you find this information useful, and that you make the most of your stay in Norwich!!!!

Cheers!!!! Teresa and Elena.
