Sightseeing - The Norfolk Broads is a low lying area that contains more than 30 artificial lakes, which were formed by the broadening of the Rivers Bure and Yare. There is a total of about 320 km of navigable water which are available for cruising. They converge at Breydon Water and flow into the North Sea at Great Yarmouth. Wroxham Broad is generally considered the most attractive.
King's Lynn is a town and seaport situated along the estuary of the River Ouse where it enters The Wash. There are a number of ancient houses and warehouses serving as a reminder of the time when the town was a prosperous port, serving the wool trade and also accommodating a sizeable fishing fleet. The 15th century Guildhall is one of the oldest and largest merchant guildhalls in England.

Museums and Cultural Attractions - Norwich cathedral was begun in 1096, and is almost wholly Norman in style.
Great Yarmouth has several museums.

Galleries -

Conservation Projects - Some parts of the Norfolk Broads have been made into nature reserves for wildlife, which include bitterns, goldeneye ducks, swans, teal, and marsh harriers, as well as the rare swallowtail butterfly. Hickling Broad, in the north of the region, is a bird sanctuary, and there is a floating conservation centre on Ranworth Broad. A seal colony lives off the seaward end of Blakeney Point and can be visited by boat.
