Described by visitors as a “must visit” for history buffs, the wall is a true spectacle to behold. “As a history buff, just visiting and seeing, and touching Hadrian's wall is a long lasting wish,” wrote one visitor on Tripadvisor. “Blessed with great weather, it was truly a site to behold and imagine briefly the history and soldiers that built this great relic. Recommend visiting some of the dig sites along the wall as visiting the wall itself is only half the experience.”.
