What to do in Chester
One of the must-sees when visiting Chester is Eastgate. This arched gateway is topped by a large clock. It is located in the city centre, not far from Chester Cathedral and the riverbanks that run through the city.
Head for the River Dee. The River Dee flows south of the city and empties into the Irish Sea. There are a number of ways to approach the river, from pedal boats and kayaks to cruising to the mouth of the river. An activity that will delight young and old alike!
