Caption: Being able to hop on and off the walls as you make your way around town is great. Even if you have someone to be, it’s a nice way to get around the city.
Video of Dyls
Caption: Dyls is the ideal brunch/lunch spot to refuel in one of the towers. I mean just look at that interior, and if the weathers good you’ve can eat right by the river.
Video of Bootham Bar
Caption: I definitely recommend ending the walk on this section of the wall near Bootham Bar.
You get great views of the Minster, beautiful gardens and plenty of pubs and restaurants nearby. Sunset from here is a nice chilled way to end the day.
