Dover

Dover, UK

Dover arrives like a punctuation mark on England’s southeast edge: chalk white cliffs that climb from the Channel, a working harbour threaded with ferries and fishing boats.

Dover arrives like a punctuation mark on England’s southeast edge: chalk white cliffs that climb from the Channel, a working harbour threaded with ferries and fishing boats, and a castle perched above that has watched centuries of comings and goings.The town’s atmosphere is elemental—salt wind, blustery skies that turn the cliffs startlingly bright, and a steady hum of engines and gulls.
