Discovering Wells, England

  • Vikalp Vidish

Wells, England, is a picturesque cathedral city in Somerset, renowned for its rich history and stunning medieval architecture. The city's crown jewel is **Wells Cathedral**, a Gothic masterpiece featuring intricate carvings, magnificent stained glass windows, and unique "scissor arches." Nearby, the **Bishop's Palace**, surrounded by a serene moat and gardens, offers a peaceful escape. **Vicar’s Close**, the oldest residential street in Europe, and the lively **Wells Market Place**, known for its local produce, add to the charm. Just outside the city, visitors can explore the **Mendip Hills** for outdoor adventures or venture into the fascinating **Wookey Hole Caves**. Wells is accessible by car, with direct routes from **Bristol** (40-minute drive) and **Bath** (45 minutes). The nearest train station is **Castle Cary**, about 30 minutes away by taxi or bus. Regular bus services also connect Wells with Bristol and Bath. The best time to visit Wells is during the spring and summer months (April to September), when the gardens of the Bishop’s Palace are in full bloom, and the weather is ideal for exploring the city and nearby countryside. Visiting during autumn can also be charming, with fewer crowds and vibrant fall colors.
