The most beutifull village in the world

A couple of days ago we went on a family trip, my dad loves Roman history so we decided to go to a ruin of a Roman Villa, we never got there, and i thank god we didnt!
As the hours went by the decided we were lost, we were all really cheesed off, untill we went around a corner to discover the most stunning village i have ever seen in my entire life!

The little village of Bibury in Cirencester, behold and look at these stunning pics, it's like going back in time!

All photos expect the google earth ones are not mine

Haydn_17,

The British do know what gardening is!!! Personally i find those gardens even more beautiful then those houses. But a nice village indeed!!

Peace

The main village centre has a stunning garden with little streams and ducks and such, there is also alot of American and Japanese tourists.

Wow!!
Those are beautiful indeed!
I always loved british villlages!

Here is a pretty amazing video

Looks just like Newhope, PA...

I take it back after watching the video

I wonder what it smells like round there. I know it sounds silly but I just want to know what it smells like.

The smell combined with the beauty really makes for a great experience.

The owner of the house on the third picture down should spend last time blowing the froth of pints of warm ale and get down to B&Q so as to get that gate repaired. Shoddy

Only joshing, a nice place. I used to pass through there a few years ago in the summer months and it is a very picturesque part of the country and favorite haunt for coach drivers and their snap-happy American and Japanese cargo.

PEACE,

I've travelled a bit and i am like yourself very much. I love the little villages and towns that the tourists dont visit or have only caught on to.

1. Monschau GERMANY



2. Valkenberg NETHERLANDS

3.Villefranche-de-Conflent FRANCE

Imagine a small village surrounded by an intact roman wall / fortress

Those are some beutiful moldy houses,i love the fungus growing out of them.

So beautiful and looking very peaceful and tranquil. Thankyou for sharing

Here is the place i would of liked to live. A place called craggaunowen in county clare in ireland, but it depicts what humans used to live like hundreds of years gone by. I went there as a school kid while i lived for 1 year as a kid in 80's as a kid. Very nice place, and amazing how different it is to what we are used to, today of course.

I bet alot of people enjoyed living like that too. If you ever get a chance to goto ireland visit it its in clare in west and is same county as shannon airport.

craggaunowen, co clare, ireland

You notice in the descriptions at least they state that they are not sure how people lived really back then, but this place was made from what is believed to be a period of irish history. Nice place though and you could really get a sense of olden times from visiting there.

See that lake house, i would love to live there today, but of course mankind has changed. But i remember going there like i said as a kid.

Shame there is not more places like this so people can have a sense of how man lived before industrialism.

if you have the chance to come china i think you will not be disappointed becasue there are many ancient and natural villages in china especially in southern china such as hangzhou and suzhou .i believe you will be fascinated by these pure things at the first sight

i would love to live somewhere like that.

Ah, fantastic.. thanks for sharing...

this is where I go to relax, feet in the river, dog swimming by my feet next to something nice chilling in the waters.
