Great Britain, Habits and Ways, English Traditions.

The British have a lot of interesting traditions and carefully keep them up. Though many English people live in towns and cities, they do not think they really belong there. The trouble is that for many English people, countryside is a symbol and an excellent sign of stability. A house with a garden in the countryside is a typical place for them where they would like to live, receive guests, keep their favorite animals, especially horses and dogs.

Spending holidays on the coast is another British tradition. It is the British who started the fashion for seaside holidays a long time ago. It is not surprising since nobody on the isles lives more than one hundred and twenty kilometers away from the sea. The seaside is the most popular place for English people to spend their holidays.

Camping holidays with tents are not so usual in Britain as on the continent.

They say British people are rather conservative. That's true in a way. Their customs and traditions prove it. Though things are beginning to change. The English still keep black Ravens in the Tower of London. They still celebrate Easter, Christmas, the Fifth of November as their public holidays and have Pancake races.
