Shakespeare’s Birthplace at Stratford-upon-Avon? Each year, famous tourist sites like these attract millions of visitors. But along with these famous places, there are thousands of other fascinating attractions that are only open to the public for a few days each year. During the Heritage (遗产) Open Days, which take place each September, tourists can visit places that would normally be closed. Read below to learn more about some of the places that most tourists might not know about. Roman baths—Chester These Roman baths are almost 2, 000 years old and offer a fascinating glimpse (一睹) into the history of the city of Chester.

Tennis club—Birmingham The Edgbaston Tennis Club opened in 1860 and is the oldest tennis club in the world.
