Dover

From the famous white chalk cliffs rises the magnificent Dover Castle. Originally constructed in Norman style, it was frequently rebuilt in later centuries. At the centre of the extensive fortress lies the Great Keep (1180), an impressive building which somewhat resembles to the Tower of London. Notice too the simple row of houses called Athol Terrace, at the bottom of the cliff. Dover has suffered at the hands of invaders on several occasions. First, Caesar's legions landed here, and later, the Saxons and the Jutes. Dover was also heavily bombarded in World War II.
