LOCATION
WHY NORWICH?
Imagine waking up in the beautiful countryside just minutes from a world-class city which provides students with the best of both worlds. Now you're getting an idea of what life at UEA is like. Norwich is a bustling city located between picturesque coastal landscapes and countryside. Always a good place for a night out, the city offers a variety of restaurants, stylish bars, theatres and nightclubs. Norwich is also voted one of the top 10 cities for shopping in the UK, with two large shopping centres and a thriving cross-section of eclectic boutiques and independent shops and cafés.
In Norfolk you will be surrounded by some of the UK’s most beautiful countryside. Enjoy country walks, medieval villages, bustling market towns and stately homes. Go walking, cycling or sailing on the Norfolk Broads, an incredible National Park. Between the bustling city of Norwich and the big skies of Norfolk there are so many places to be inspired during your time at UEA.
There’s also a great deal of history within Norwich, the city boasts over 30 medieval churches, two cathedrals, art galleries, museums, and a Norman castle. A visit to Norwich would not be complete without a visit to one of the county’s glorious sandy beaches to enjoy traditional fish and chips by the sea.
Rail, bus and air links to the city allow students to make the most of their summer study period. Less than two hours by direct train to London means that Norwich is ideally located to explore the UK and Europe. The city also boasts an international airport with daily connections to and from Amsterdam, making international travel easy.
