The best shopping in Norwich isn't in the malls — it's on the streets. From vintage stores to artisan workshops, spots like Norwich Market are scattered through neighborhoods that reward the curious walker. Wander further and you'll stumble on Dragon Hall — the kind of find you can't replicate online.
A medieval East Anglian city with more medieval churches than any city in England north of the Thames.

The audio walking tour can include stops such as Norwich Market — one of the largest and oldest open-air markets in England, operating since the 11th century, plus hidden gems like Dragon Hall — a medieval trading hall with a rare crown-post roof, built by a merchant in the 15th century and The Plantation Garden — a hidden Victorian garden tucked behind a wall near the city center.

Walk from the castle down to Elm Hill, through the cathedral close, and loop back via the lanes and market — about an hour for the full circuit.
