| The culture of the United Kingdom, a blend of ancient and modern, holds true to its historic past while readily recognising that many modern day events play an important role in the cultural life of the citizens. Scotland with its music and games, Northern Ireland with its festivals and exhibitions, Wales with its legends and myths and England with its traditions and customs form a cherished and proud cultural mosaic. |

The long history of England has resulted in a traditional culture such as can be seen in traditional residence and wedding custom,for example, as well as in the ordinary daily lives of its citizens. Traditional festivals help to keep the past alive while adding to everyone's enjoyment of life. |

Scotland is special in so many ways - in its music and dress and speech. Both golf and football are popular, and people of all ages enjoy hillwalking as a pleasant way to enjoy the beautiful rugged terrain. |

For culture vultures, Northern Ireland has a great selection of art galleries and museums, plus a full calendar of special exhibitions and festivals. |

The traditional customs of Wales call for laughter, music, flowers and feasts to celebrate love and marriage and special occasions and holidays throughout the year. Its legends tell brave tales of men and women's heroic deeds and its myths bring forth scary creatures hiding in various parts of the land. |
