Britain has a temperate maritime climate, which is mild and humid all year round. Generally speaking, there is little change in the cold and heat in the four seasons. However, cold air occasionally visits, and Britain has a different charm when it snows. Britain is a country with beautiful scenery and few people. What are the places to travel in winter? Why not plant some grass for the upcoming Christmas holiday?
Isle of Skye
The name comes from ancient Gaelic, meaning the island closest to the sky. It is a small island off the main island of Britain, and it sounds romantic enough! The island has continuous mountain peaks and scattered lakes, which are natural and beautiful.
Sky Island in winter is sparsely populated, with excellent light and fairyland-like snow scenery. If possible, I would like to leisurely watch the warm winter sun climb over the mountains and then slowly set, watching the snow-capped mountains dyed with orange or orange. Whether the sunset is pink or purple, whether you press the shutter or not, the beauty of that moment will be treasured for a long time.

Highland, Scotland
The car drove through the A82 highway and passed through the beautiful scenery of the Scottish Highlands. Even the wind smelled of freedom. The Scottish Highlands, with ancient castles, rolling mountains, and free-growing animals, satisfy all your imagination of Scotland.
With a come-it-all mentality, you still have to visit the Glenfinnan Railway Viaduct! The scene in "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" where the Hogwarts Express and the flying blue Ford sedan pass through the Western Highlands was filmed on the viaduct. It was so out of place in the film that I picked up the camera and took the shot!

EdinburghEdinburgh
Scottish writer Robert Louis Stevenson once said: "There is no star as lovely as the street lights of Edinburgh..."
Overlooking the city from Edinburgh Castle is something you can’t miss when you come to Edinburgh. If you are lucky enough to catch some snow, it will be even more beautiful! If you want to get rid of "just being in this mountain" and see the whole picture of Edinburgh, you might as well conquer Calton Hill, where you can enjoy the sunset and overlook the blue Atlantic Ocean.

Oh, and of course not to be missed is the annual Christmas market, located in East Princes Street Gardens (23.11.17-24.1.6). It is very large, with more than 70 stalls. Admission is free, and there is also a huge Ferris wheel and ice skating.
YorkYork
Are there any Ham fans who don’t know about York? Shambles, an ancient cobbled medieval street, was the filming location for Diagon Alley in Harry Potter. Nowadays, you can find everything to eat, drink, play and buy here. Walk through Shambles to St. Sampson’s Square, a wonderful place The Christmas market starts here (during 23.11.16-12.22). The square is flanked by cabins full of Christmas atmosphere, ranging from exquisite handicrafts to delicious Yorkshire delicacies...

York can always give you unexpected surprises.
LondonLondon
Samuel Johnson once said: “If you are tired of London, you are tired of life.”Museums of rich culture on the streets of London, bars shrouded in neon lights at night, outdoor cafes under the sun, and fancy markets on weekends, there is an accent called London.The weather has quietly turned colder. Going to the streets of London, following the crowds of people and immersing yourself in the Christmas atmosphere, is a good way to eliminate the deep silence of winter and feel the smell of fireworks in the lively streets.
