| Hereford, the main city in the county, has a few treats for the visitor. |
| It has a magnificent Norman cathedral containing a real treasure - the Mappa Mundi - a 12th century medieval map of the world. |
| Indeed, the city, which is right on the banks of the River Wye, is thought to be one of the oldest in Britain. |
| Every three years the city hosts the Three Choirs Festival, the oldest festival of its kind in Europe |
| The city is also home for cider making and there's a cider museum which traces the history of the industry. Many of the pubs sell the resulting cider but warn that it's very strong! |
