Dover is beautiful from the water and from above, looking over the city from the cliffs. But is is a depressed place, dirty and not really what I imagined it would be. It is not exactly a destination, but a stop-off point for people going on cruises or passing through to the continent. The English Channel is narrowest between Dover and Calais (which is also why so many battles have been fought here).
We decided to spend the next day in Canterbury instead of Dover. Christ Church Cathedral is incredible! Of course, the pictures are not even close to the experience of being there.
