The most beautiful and striking building in York is definitely the York Minster, the largest Gothic medieval church in Northern Europe. This is the West Door, which i mistakenly thought was the main door when i first arrived.
Later, i found the main door, which allowed visitors to enter into the visiting area.

However, to go deeper into the church, one must pay. Even though i didn't go in further, i was already very impressed by the intricate Gothic design, which was accentuated by the high arches and ceiling which gave the place a very spacious feel.
There was a night after dinner, i went back to the York Minster ( about 3 min walk from my hotel) and just sat in front of the West door for 30 minutes just to admire this fine piece of art. Later, i had no choice but to leave because i was already shivering from the cold.
Autumn has always been my favourite season, with all those red and brown leaves floating down from willow trees. We passed through Museum Gardens in York and it was so beautiful it almost made me cry. There were free roaming squirrels which were not afraid of humans at all, i wish i had an acorn with me to offer to them.
