Travel Destinations of Stratford-upon-Avon (England).
England is a country that is part of the UK with capital London. It is part of Europe and thanks to the tunnel with France there is even a permanent connection between the continent and the island. England has a long history and the many castles around the country, the English language spoken worldwide and the fact that the King/Queen is head of state in many countries are proof of this. England is also sports-minded (football crazy) and many sports find their roots here.
Stratford town is a popular tourist destination owing to its status as the birthplace and gravesite of playwright and poet William Shakespeare.
