On the south coast of England, just before you reach the famous Cornwall, lies the idyllic county of Devon, a real gem. Devon is best known for its picturesque hills, picturesque fishing villages and the Dartmoor and Exmoor National Parks. The land here seems older, wilder and more pristine than in the east and between the famous tors of Dartmoor - bizarrely shaped granite formations that are said to have been haunted by the devil - the Norman cathedral in Exeter and the many hidden prehistoric beauties of Devon, travelers will find all their wishes fulfilled in mystical England.
If you are looking for evidence of the past, for sagas and legends, Devon is the place for you. The county was one of the first regions in England to be settled at the end of the last ice age. The first hunter-gatherers were on Dartmoor as early as 6,000 BC. The remains of their villages can still be admired today in the rugged and barren landscape.
Tourism has also found its way into Devon, as more and more people are attracted by the beautiful landscape and historical sights of Devon. As one of the largest counties in England, Devon has much to offer, including 500 kilometers of coastline with some of the most beautiful sandy beaches in England. Also worth seeing is the Jurassic Coast, a UNESCO World Heritage Site with impressive rock and coastal formations. #devon #england #bestplaces
