Great Britain
Climate of Great Britain
Great Britain is situated on the islands.
It is washed by seas from all the sides.
That's why the climate and the nature of Great Britain are very specific. It is not very cold in winter and never
very hot in summer. There is no ice on the lakes and rivers in winter.
It rains very often in all the seasons.
The weather changes very often.
Mark Twain said about America: "If you don't like the weather in New England, just wait a few minutes", but it is
more likely to have been said about England.
Besides, Britain is famous for its fogs.
Sometimes fogs are so thick that it is impossible to see anything within 2 or 3 metres.
The nature of the British Isles is picturesque.
There are many rivers and very beautiful lakes, but there are no great forests on the British Isles.
The mountains there are not very high, but very beautiful.
The most picturesque part of the country is Highlands in the North of Scotland.
This is a region of mountains and rivers, small towns and villages.
In Wales there are also many beautiful mountains and valleys.
The highest mountain in Wales is Snowdon.
Everyone who comes to England says that it looks like one great beautiful park.
The Englishmen love their country and take care of it
