Few cities present as dramatic a profile as Lincoln. From many miles
away the cathedral on its ridge makes a thrilling silhouette over the
surrounding landscape. Closer to, its mighty Gothic towers dominate the
city's rooftops. Nearer still, Lincoln's ancient powerful castle shares
the heights. Lincoln is truly a city of two halves: the historic citadel
above and, below, the commercial hub, with an earlier history of its
own. Linking the two is the High Street, one of Britain's best-preserved
streets. What better way for today's visitor to explore, experience, and
enjoy this beautiful city?
