York has been at the centre of life in northern England since the first records of history. The Romans called it Eboracum and the Vikings Jorvik. In this, England's 'eternal city', their long departed presence remains: in the streets, buildings, the city wall and museums and, of course, the mighty Minster. York has long been at the heart of communication; the rivers found their way their at the beginning of time, the Romans brought the roads and the Victorians the railways. York's vast National Railway Museum pays homage to the latter, and the waterways each year celebrate the long-term visit of the Vikings.
