RAMSGATE, KENT
Before heading back to Switzerland, after our trip to northern England, I stayed with my sister, Annie, in Ramsgate for a few days. Such a beautiful old school town in southeastern England,
Ramsgate is a coastal town in Kent, England, located on the eastern edge facing the North Sea. Renowned for its beach and maritime history, it attracts tourists with its picturesque harbor, designated as England's first Royal Harbour by King George IV in 1820. The town features Georgian, Victorian, and Edwardian architecture, including cliff-top buildings and Ramsgate Town Hall. Local beaches like Ramsgate Main Sands are perfect for sunbathing, while Pegwell Bay offers tranquil nature reserves. Cultural attractions include the Ramsgate Maritime Museum and various annual events that enrich community engagement. Well-connected by rail and road, Ramsgate is a notable destination in Kent.
