The United Kingdom encompasses England, Scotland, Wales, and Northern Ireland - four nations with distinct identities, landscapes, and cultures packed into an island smaller than Oregon. London is one of the world's great capital cities, but the UK's depth extends far beyond it: Edinburgh's medieval Old Town, the dramatic Scottish Highlands, the literary villages of the Cotswolds, the wild coastline of Cornwall, and the castles of Wales all compete for attention. A centuries-deep pub culture, world-class museums (most of them free), and one of the planet's most diverse food scenes make the UK endlessly rewarding for visitors.
