Information on places to visit in Chester with a hire car

Chester sits right on the border with Wales and was founded all of the way back in 70 AD. It has seen many developments over recent years that now make it one of the hottest city breaks in the UK. One of the best places to begin is with Chester’s City Walls. Most of the walls follow exactly the same defence lines as the ones from the Roman era and the 3km path is a great way to see some of the city’s tallest and oldest buildings. A visit to Chester Cathedral is also a must when visiting this city. It is built in the typical Medieval English architectural style, from Norman Romanesque to Perpendicular Gothic aspects. It took an astonishing 500 years to build and is without a doubt a centrepiece of this historic city. For a lovely walk when the weather is nice, have a wander to The Groves - a pretty riverside promenade on the north bank of the Dee. On your walk you will pass old Georgian houses, a number of pubs, lime trees and plenty of benches to stop for a picnic. A trip to Chester can never be complete until you have visited the famous Chester Zoo. It stretches over an astonishing 125 acres and features more than 20,000 individual animals. The park is split into ‘environments’ where you can find different species mingling from all over the planet. Make sure you plan a full day out here!
