Kingston-Upon-Hull, or simply Hull, is a port city in the East Yorkshire county of England. Although most popular for its port where ferries depart for the continent, this surprising city became the City of Culture in 2017, with more on offer than ever.
Hull's presence as a settlement dates back to the 12th century, and the town grew to be a significant wool and fishing industry town. Hull's many free museums detail the city's complex history, including its role in the English Civil War and the bombings it experienced in World War II. Other museums offer art displays as well as transport exhibitions.
The iconic Humber Bridge is just a short 10-minute drive from Hull. This 1.4-mile suspension bridge has enough photo opportunities to rival even some of the world's most famous bridges.
Hull is served by Humber International Airport, with shuttle buses running to the city. Hull Paragon Interchange in the centre of the town allows for easy rail access from all over the country. Coach services, like National Express, also operate from here. These transport options all serve as connections to the P&O Ferries that depart from Hull to Rotterdam.

Hull Railway Station is part of the city's transport interchange where rail, bus, and coach services intersect in the centre of Hull. The train station first opened in 1847, and as part of the development of St Stephen's shopping centre next door in the early 2000s, a coach station was integrated into the station. Some of Hull's best shopping is in the shopping centre next to the station, but the city's attractions, restaurants, and the Princess Quay mall are also within a short walk. The station's bright and airy interior includes waiting areas, a travel information desk, restrooms, and several shops and cafes. Several train lines, including TransPennine Express, Northern Trains, and London North Eastern Railway, offer service to and from Hull Railway Station.
