Another stunning picture from the Internet:
If you like countryside, then you really can't beat Yorkshire for scenery. No we don't have dramatic snow capped mountains, but we do have beautiful English countryside.
There's some lovely scenery all over the UK if I'm being honest, but generally it's prettier in the mid-northern counties.

Ferns thrive in more humid environments under deciduous trees. The pine forests are usually where it's very dry, like here, and have very sparse undergrowth:
Woods here are really dense regardlles, they are a jungle. Opposite for rhodos here, too hot I'm assuming since they only grow in the mountains naturally.

Always enjoyed the scenery in Last of the Summer Wine.

Disagree, the best countryside is in Surrey, Sussex and Hampshire.

Best scenery in England is in the Lake District, without a doubt.





I like the scenery between Leeds and York as well simply because it is quintessential of England. It screams 'home' to me. I rag on my country of birth a lot but in the middle of summer when the sun is shining and there is a gentle breeze, there are few places I'd rather be.

Now I wish it was July.

Are your photos an accurate representation? Or are they the results of cherry picking?

Why is it important? They're nice pictures and the first ones that appear when you search for 'Lake District' on Google images.

https://www.google.co.uk/search?q=La...w=1366&bih=638

But regardless - use your brain. This is a mountainous area of North West England. You tell me if you think it's an accurate representation of what the weather is normally like there.
