Reading: More Than Just a Train Stop

Reading might surprise you with how much it has to offer. Right in the town centre, Forbury Gardens is home to the impressive Maiwand Lion—a giant statue in a lovely little park perfect for chilling out. The high street’s got all your shopping needs sorted, and just around the corner, the Reading Museum is completely free and way more interesting than you’d expect. If you're up for a scenic walk, head towards Sonning Bridge on the River Thames—it’s postcard-perfect. Whether you’re here for a quick visit or a slow wander, Reading’s got a little bit of everything. #visitreading
