Kingston upon Hull is something of national peculiarity: a large city situated in the middle of the rural area of Yorkshire. Experiencing the city of Kingston upon Hull first hand is unique in itself. It is a place of unadulterated cultural identity and a character unique to its own, which is reflected in the humour, accent, spirit and self-effacement of its inhabitants.

Despite being one of the most bombed cities during the Second World War, it has some of the most precious architectural gems including the Queens Gardens, the Queen Victoria Square, The Marina & around, the Humber Bridge and KC Stadium. After the Second World War, the city saw a huge decline in its industry, but now, it is going through a phase of growth, renewal and regeneration.

The various festivals to be seen at Kingston upon Hull include the Humber Mouth Literature festival, the Hull Jazz festival, the Sea Fever festival and the Hull Fair, among others. In the year 2007, the first Hull comedy festival was held in which performers like Russell Howard and Steward Lee also took part.
