Whilst Canterbury is mainly a student based city, many tourists are drawn in year after year due to the remarkable history of the city, along with famous attractions. Canterbury Cathedral is iconic, the oldest in the country and famous for its beautiful and historic architecture. It’s not a surprise that it’s often bursting with visitors all year round.
The city offers a wide range for all ages, with a wide variety of shops, cafes and restaurants. Well known for their low priced British souvenirs and friendly manner, The Merchant Chandler offers a variety of typically English gifts for those to take back with them. Bhupendia Rai, shop assistant, told us that a majority of their customers are tourists.
