When April with his showers sweet with fruit...
Then do folk long to go on a pilgrimage,
And palmers to go seeking out strange strands,
To distant shrines well known in sundry lands.
And specially from every shire's end
Of England they to Canterbury wend...
(excerpt from the Prologue to Canterbury Tales by Chaucer)
A statue welcomes you to Canterbury
The gateway to the Cathedral
Closeup of carvings on the archway
Spires of Canterbury Cathedral
