Free Attractions
In this depressing recessionary climate we are all suffering from it is refreshing to think that there are many places we can visit that are free. A visit to a National Trust forest or a coastal walk is worth considering and the exercise could do us good.
But, there are also plenty of places in our cities that are free that can provide, interest, entertainment, education and above all enjoyment – many art galleries, museums, historical buildings, are free attractions.
