England's Cornwall

Rick Steves' Europe Travel Guide © 2016 | The far southwest of England is a world unto itself, with a persistent Cornish culture. We'll explore a world of flowers springing from towering hedges, a tin-mining heritage going back to biblical times, salty pirates' towns and fishing villages, and the Land's End of England. Then, side-tripping deep into the vast and mysterious Dartmoor National Park, we'll hike to forgotten stone circles and chase wild ponies. #ricksteves #ricksteveseurope #cornwall

As an humble man, from a poor American village, traveling is not something that may ever be in my budget. However, I've thoroughly enjoyed with these amazing glimpses into some of the most beautiful places in the world that Mr. Rick so kindly and richly brought to us over the years. Thank you so much Mr. Rick for sharing with me the joy of travelling and getting to know different places, peoples and cultures! Best wishes from Arkansas.

Visitors to our land always marvel at the green-ness of the country. We pay a heavy price for this beauty. It is called rain.

I'm here because there is a town in México called "Real del monte" where Cornish lived there and they brought their culture and traditional things like pasty, football cricket, handball, architecture, surnames, etc.

My grandfather was from Cornwall, immigrated to the US around 1910. He could speak Cornish and eating pasties was a family tradition.

I live up north and every summer me, my mum and nanna drive down to Cornwall and spend the weekend there. This summer we’ll be spreading my nanna’s ashes. She’s be where she was most happy.

I'm from Michigan, the pastie tradition is very strong here, especially in the north of Michigan where copper mining was extensive. It's considered a traditional Michigan food here, but wonderful to know it originated in England!

I heard about Cornwall from Poldark...Looks magnificent!! Grew up with pasties..The miners from the old country brought them when they came to work the slate mines in Pennsylvania.
