Medieval castle to giant water wheel. The Isle of Man
has more than average tourist sites to attract, wonder
and entertain.
|
Walk through a medieval castle in Castletown and learn how it was used
for residence, defence, jail and official offices. Or try a ruined
castle on the Isle of St. Patrick near Peel where tales of vikings, monks,
and a ghost dog are told.
Climb the great Laxey Wheel known as 'Lady Isabella' and view the
surroundings from the top of a water wheel over 70ft up. Ride on
some of the oldest tram cars in the world, which meet in Laxey to
carry passengers south, north and up the mountain Snaefell.
For those interested in the past way of life on the island, travel up to
Cregneash and visit the village locked in time. Where the people live
in thatched cottages, speak the native Manx language, and practise
local trades and crafts.
The Isle of Man has a wealth of history and sites to go with it. Bringing
the new and old together in the 'Story of Mann'.
