Stratford-Upon-Avon, England

Stratford-Upon-Avon is a market town in South Warwickshire, England. You might better recognize this town as the birth place of the famous poet William Shakespeare.  I heard about him from my childhood. So it was a great experience to visit his birth place.  There is a trust called 'Shakespeare birthplace trust' and they are maintaining Shakespeare's house etc. I would say they are doing a great job. Especially Shakespeare's house, Anne Hathaway's Cottage ( Shakespeare's wife) are well maintained in my opinion.
