York , United Kingdom

York is a historic walled city in northeast England that was founded by the ancient Romans. With a history that dates back to before Roman times, York is frequently ranked with Manchester as the second most visited city in England after London and is, of course famous, for giving its name to the city and state of New York in the United States.
