Dover Castle




I'll introduce Dover Castle in northern England.
I learned about it at Cultural History class.


It is 1000 years old, but parts of the castle are still used
by the police to supervise activity in the English Channel
between England and France.


It has been described as the "Key to England" due to
its defensive significance throughout history.
