111 Places in Winchester That You Shouldn't Miss Synopsis

England's first capital, largest cathedral, and oldest college: Winchester is a city where ancient walls murmur stories of proud warriors and Wintonian pioneers, of brutal crimes and glorious successes.

Whether you've called Winchester home for years, recently moved here, or are just visiting for a short time, these 111 places will captivate, enchant, and amaze you. Try the sparkling wine which rivals champagne or the renowned striped ice cream and visit Europe's first wasabi grower. Feel a shiver in the Red Room, cross the bridge that predicts the weather and find the garden built by a spy. Amble where Russel Crowe rode and the real Countess of Downton Abbey resides. Defend the city against a Viking invasion and meet the policeman who solved the first-ever train murder.

Amid it all, you'll be immersed in Winchester's stunning architecture, lively atmosphere, and warm energy - a city no longer ruling a kingdom, yet still brimming with power, scandal, secrets, and life.
