Isles of Wight, United Kingdom
Off the southernmost part of England this Island in English channel towards France , was residence of Dinasaur 250 million years ago .
“Fossils” can still be found and takes you through the journey millions of years ago on this fascinating Dinosaur Island .
The Osborne House has history where Queen Victoria died . It was built in 1845 as private Royal residence of Victoria and Albert in Italian style . Everything in it is intact and one can see the lifestyle of that era when Queen Victoria was the Empress of India ! The house was given to trust in 1902 by Prince Albert V11, though the Queen had asked it to remain in Family . The trust maintains it with tickets for public entry .
How can you not be happily surprised and awed Very old Hansel and gretal like old Thatched houses in villages which seems to be out of pages of 11- 13th century like the Godshill village town ! The time has stood still here .
There are 11th century many churches which draws you to era of Nomads and Romans .
A holiday destination preferred by Romans in 1st century AD due to Temperate climate .
By boats from Portsmouth and by hovercraft Isles of wight can be accessed . Shanklin beach and walking or cycling through diverse forest and vegetation is preferred by English holiday makers .
Ryde , Shanklin , Yarmouth , Cowes are towns . The step back in time is the Godshill with mediaeval church and Thatched cottages and Cute tearooms !
There’s a Glass blowing factory where one can watch artisans glass blowing and making beautiful glassware just like Morena . I bought a black orchid shaped vade with 24 k gold floating like stars around blackhole in galaxy .
The ” needles ” the chalk rock formation arising from sea 30 m above sea level , a unique landscape which awes all .

by MARCONI .
One can have wine tasting in Wineyards too .
The Blackgang is the oldest amusement park of England built in 1843 !
There are fort , embakments , fishing boats around the coast with lighthouses .
