Chester is located northwest of England bordering Wales. This city is unique for precious Tudor style houses that are found throughout the Old Center.
El reloj Eastgate y su importante Catedral son sus otras dos bellezas turísticas que merece la pena ver.
El estilo Tudor en arquitectura constituye el desarrollo final de la arquitectura medieval durante el Período Tudor (1485-1603).
Se caracteriza por el "Half-timbering": «media viga o media madera», técnica de elevación de muros mediante una estructura de madera cuyos espacios intermedios se rellenan con mampostería.
También se conoce más propiamente en inglés como "wattle and daub": literalmente «zarza, (ramas) y mezcla», combinación en albañilería de fibras o elementos de refuerzo de madera con un mortero húmedo en base a caliza, yeso u otros minerales.
Otras de sus características es la ventana "oriel", un aventanamiento que sobresale del plano de la fachada.
Todos estos elementos hacen de Chester un sitio delicioso para pasear por sus calles disfrutando de tan peculiar arquitectura de sus casas
