Colchester has a long and well-documented history that it's Castle is a big part of. Colchester museum is a must to visit whilst in the town, it covers Colchester’s long and varied heritage.

You can take a guided tour of the underground tunnels; bypass the foundations of the Roman temple and Norman chapel. Today many of Colchester’s ancient buildings remain, and are open to tour, the Town Hall being one that is certainly worth visit.

Despite the age of the town, the presence of the University of Essex gives the town a lively and modern feel too. You can visit the zoo, which is on the outskirts of Colchester, it participates in international breeding programmes and runs educational courses covering topics such as animal behaviour, environment and habitat and endangered species.
