Gloucester, Cathedral city in Gloucestershire, England
The city extends along the River Severn between the Cotswolds hills and Forest of Dean, connecting to the Severn Estuary through the Gloucester Canal.
The Romans established Glevum around 48 AD, which gained colonial status in 97 AD under Emperor Nerva, serving as a strategic military base.
The Three Choirs Festival alternates between Gloucester, Worcester, and Hereford cathedrals, presenting choral performances in the British musical tradition.
