Known as The Shambles, the pathways are cobbled and is full of bustling shops, restaurants and tourists attractions like ghost walks and history tours.

.... Then many tourists flock to this popular area.

With historical features like the narrow streets, leaning roofs that nearly meet in the middle and the mention of the street in the Domesday book, it is easy to see why it was voted the best and Europe's best persevered medieval street.

The name comes from the Saxon "Fleshammels"which translates into 'the street of butchers'. The window sills of the houses used to have meat for sale displayed there (pictured below).
Now the butchers have been replaced by antique and jewelry shops.

This little street attracts thousands of visitors each year and has been persevered really well. Hopefully it will still be there in a few more centuries to come.
