by nauval atmaja Sheffield Botanical Gardens "Green Oasis"

Sheffield's Botanical Gardens are a popular green oasis lying just off a frenzied shopping area. Replete with winding paths, extensive plant collections, droves of mature trees, and charming edifices, the gardens are home to some extremely well-designed Glass Pavilions which harbor temperate vegetation. The plants residing at the gardens boast a long- standing heritage, hence not just displaying unabashed beauty, but also a treasured legacy. There are also excellent views of the gardens from the Curator's House Tea Rooms and Restaurant at the Clarkehouse Road entrance. The rolling lawns that carpet it, carry the gardens' secrets, such as the Pan statue in the rose garden and the Bear Pit. Home to a scenic boardwalk, a Victorian rose garden and a rare fossil, these beautifully landscaped gardens, designated by English Heritage as being of major architectural and historical interest, are a secluded sanctum of heavenly flora combined with moments of peace.

St. Michael and All Angels Church "12th century Historical Church"

St. Michael's was built in 1381, but it is believed that its site has been used for worship since the 7th Century. The church has some unusual history: Charlotte Brontë stayed in the vicarage in 1845 and part of her novel, Jane Eyre, is set here. She also took Jane's surname from a brass memorial to the local Eyre family, which is still displayed at the back of the church. The by artyangel legendary Little John was also said to live locally and his grave is marked in the churchyard.

Bakewell "Market Town"

The town of Bakewell is located on the river Wye and known for the famed Bakewell pudding. It falls within the Derbyshire Dales district of Derbyshire.
