The United Kingdom is located in Northern Europe and consists of 4 countries: England, Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
While London certainly is the most popular destination in the kingdom, there is so much more to see here. From fairytale-like towns to stunning nature and endless landscapes.
Personally, I have only visited London and parts of Southern England so far, but I am planning to visit more destinations soon!
