St. Albans was the first British Christian martyr. The town named after him, with 2000+ years of amazing history, is rich mix of cathedrals, Tudor buildings, and ancient ruins. The Roman city of Verulamium, where Alban was from, is right outside the city center. The highlight was definitely Ye Olde Fighting Cocks, believed to be England's oldest surviving pub. My pint of Old Speckled Hen Ale was delicious!
