Many of the Industrial Revolution's valuable inventions first saw the light of day in this city. Now, many travelers are beginning to see the light that this English city is a good place for a holiday. Partygoers will certainly enjoy the nightlife scene while those seeking learning will have a field day visiting places like the Great North Museum and Segedunum Roman Fort & Museum. Jesmond Dene, meanwhile, features trails for those who love the great outdoors. Perhaps the best part of all this is the fact that almost all these attractions are within a 15-minute walk from each other!
