UK - The Cotswolds - Crowds of visitors at Bourton-on-the-Water

Sitting by the stream at Bourton-on-the-Water in The Cotswolds, Gloucestershire, UK. It is known as the 'Venice of the Cotswolds' because of the bridge-spanned stream that runs through the village, this is one of the most popular places to visit in the area. Popular with both the English themselves and international visitors from all over the world, the area is well known for gentle hillsides ‘wolds’, outstanding countryside, sleepy ancient limestone villages, historic market towns and for being so ‘typically English’ where time has stood still for over 300 years. Throughout the Cotswolds stone features in buildings and stone walls act as a common thread in seamlessly blending the historic towns & villages with their surrounding landscape. One of the most 'quintessentially English' and unspoiled regions of England.
