Cotswolds is an area with grassland rolling hills, and golden colored stone villages and small towns, it's an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty(AONB), 象国家公园一样. 坐火车到伦敦不用两小时, 非常适合day trip.

The area was very prosperous from 14th to 17th centuries at the height of thriving wool trade, many buildings and cottages were built then. 羊毛交易直线下落之后几百年,那里很少有新的发展. 现在以旅游业农业为主,以至当地人口老化,退休老人多. 但是古色古香的村镇象童话世界一般,吸引很多伦敦人在这里有渡假房. 疫情期间,在家工作的年轻人也有搬到这里,不知会不会长久。

Chipping Campden is a market town. Chipping means market.

1,最高点Dover's Hill

2, High street 是商业街道,一个小店接一个店,十几分钟也就走完。

3, 

4, 现在还在用的Market Hall

4, 住宅区的thatched cottage. 稻节房顶冬暖夏凉,蜜色的外墙任何季节都感觉温暖。

5,   Stone slate 房顶都是当地产品,窗框,围墙更不用说了

英国人的garden 和美囯人的车,各种各样五彩缤纷. 如果五月去,大概房前屋后会花姿招展了。

Snowshill 是一个只有一百多人的树庄,有个小教堂,没什么商店,排屋多

6,小教堂
