Followed a young and lovely guide to visit here. Every room has a story, furnishings and even Wordsworth used them. Although it's not a long time, it also has some sense of history. He went out on the path he had walked by, looked back at glasmere lake, the high and low roof had covered his sight, and thought of the line "Ba Zhang mountain blocks your eyes". Finally, I realized my wish to see my former residence. I got on the bus and went north with satisfaction.

Let's stop in the small town of glasmere. This is the hometown of Wordsworth, a famous British poet. We came to his "Narcissus Garden", which is a quiet small garden, but also a small house like a rural cottage.

Info

It was the former residence of the lakeside poet William Wordsworth. He is the greatest poet in England. It is here that he wrote his most famous poem Narcissus. You can go back to the scene where he and his family lived and enjoy various related exhibitions.

Pigeon house and Wordsworth museum are in the small town of glasmere, which is accessible from windmill by 555 and 599. We are from glasmere town. We walk around the center of the town for about 15 minutes. Then we walk to the meeting place for about 20 minutes. It's pigeon house and Wordsworth Museum. On the way, you will pass the gingerbread house and Wordsworth's cemetery. You can learn about the place where the poet lives first. My friends think it makes sense and can design the route like this. Along the way, you can see the green peak in the mist and the boundless field. In the distance, the stump is the wall, the green forest is the screen, the path in front of the green tile and white house is winding, and the black sheep is leisurely. Suddenly, the world is quiet! It's this beautiful land that gives Wordsworth sincere feelings and writes fresh, beautiful and romantic poems. The former residence of Wordsworth occupies a small area. It is a two-story small building with a gray roof and a white house. There is a small courtyard in which the museum is located. There are many children's books and Wordsworth's books and CDs in the souvenir shop. The ticket is 8.25 pounds.

The residence of Wordsworth, the poet of yueguan sent by the Lakeside School, can't be said that it's a bit hard not to visit Wordsworth's former residence in the lakeside district. The lake district itself is famous. I think the humanistic aura of lakeside poets has contributed no less than 5 points. The scenery alone is no better than Tianchi. For example, Walden lake is famous for Thoreau. The lake district and Wordsworth are also the feelings of achieving each other. So it's like the relationship between Barcelona and Gaudi.

It is divided into two parts: Museum and former residence. In the museum, there are works and letters of Wordsworth and his literary friends, as well as diaries and letters of Wordsworth's family. There is an English tour guide to take you around the old house. It's a tour every half an hour. The pigeon room is very small. The best room in the whole room should be Wordsworth's own study and creation room

I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. ——William Wordswhile Maybe when you come here, your soul will be invaded by romance; It is also possible that, looking at the history of sleeping here, you will unconsciously slow down your steps for fear of disturbing the peace.
