On the outskirts of England's South Downs National Park, Winchester is a city in the county of Hampshire. Renowned for its medieval charm, Winchester Cathedral is perhaps what the city is best known for, featuring the impressive 17th century Morley Library, the historic Winchester Bible, and a Norman crypt. The cathedral, which is home to the longest medieval nave in Europe, is the resting place for the remains of numerous ancient significant residents of Wessex and Winchester. A stone's throw from the cathedral lies Winchester College, founded by Bishop William of Wykeham, which proudly holds the title as one of the oldest, continuously running, schools in the country. Winchester also has many bustling shopping streets, and during the summer months, offers a picturesque backdrop for open air events that embody the essence of the British countryside.
