Kingston upon Hull, Port city in Yorkshire, United Kingdom

Kingston upon Hull sits at the junction of the rivers Hull and Humber, featuring maritime museums, historic docks, and The Deep aquarium.

The city gained recognition in 1642 when it denied entry to King Charles I, marking the first military action of the English Civil War.

The Museums Quarter contains four connected museums presenting local maritime history, transportation artifacts, and the William Wilberforce collection.

Hull Paragon Interchange connects the city with direct trains to London, Leeds, and Manchester, plus local and national bus services.

The Land of Green Ginger street contains England's smallest window, measuring just 25 centimeters high in the George Hotel wall.
