All about the UK

The UK (United Kingdom) has four countries in it. These are England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.

BRITISH CASTLES

The UK is full of very old and beautiful castles that you can visit. One of the most popular is Warwick Castle in England. You can spend a night in a tent there. Then, there is the amazing Edinburgh Castle in Scotland. It is on a very big rock in the middle of the city. It’s something else!

LONDON

You can’t come to the UK and not visit London. Over 9 million people live there, and each year, it welcomes about 20 million tourists. Many want to see the famous sights there, like Big Ben, the Tower of London and St Paul’s Cathedral. London has lots of museums too, like the British Museum and the National Gallery.

SPORT

Sport is a big part of British culture, especially football – people love to watch and play it. There are lots of famous football teams. Chelsea, Manchester United and Liverpool are some of the biggest. Tennis is also popular, and tennis fans can’t wait for the Wimbledon Championships. This competition takes place around June and July every year.

BRITISH FOOD

There are lots of traditional British dishes, like fish and chips and bangers and mash – a ‘banger’ is another name for a sausage and ‘mash’ is potato! There is also the full English breakfast, and you can eat this any time of the day, not just for breakfast. It has sausages, eggs, tomatoes, mushrooms and bread, and you have it with a cup of tea, of course! It’s also called a ‘fry-up’ and it’s yummy!
