Why
I was surprised an impressed by the port town of Hull whose official name is Kingston-Upon-Hull, but it does not go by that name. I think you’ll share my excitement as well when you visit, this small, but big town.

Where
Hull (Kingston-Upon-Hull) is located in the northeast coast of the U.K. It is a port town sitting on the River Hull. It’s pretty neat to see how low the water goes when tide is out. You can literally see the bottom of the river in places.
