As described in the poetry of Shelley, Keats, Tennyson, and Charlotte Bronte, the Lake District is one of the most beautiful sections of protected land in all of England. The Lake District takes its name from the many lakes located within its 35-mile width, and all of England"s land that is 3,000 feet above sea level can be found in England"s Lake District. Bordering Scotland, the Lake District protects wild flora and fauna that isn"t often found elsewhere in the country. Tourists will enjoy taking walking tours, visiting the Lake District National Park Visitor Center, and exploring all that this popular and beautiful spot has to offer.
