Of course there is no avoiding the rich history of this exciting city, much of which dates back as far as 20BC. The historic journey can be witnessed in the style of the historic buildings and monuments that lend the perfect backdrop to a romantic date. The biggest and most popular of which is the city’s Cathedral and St Abbey Church. The Cathedral dates back to around 1077 and is still used as an active centre of worship for the community, with daily services and hosting a wide range of music events throughout the year. Elsewhere, the rich history can be seen in the Clock Tower, which was built between 1403 and 1412 and even the St Albans street markets, which date back to the 9th Century.
Singles in St Albans can enjoy, or even take part in, a range of arts and culture events here, with regular concerts and theatre productions held at popular venues like the Trestle Arts Base, St Albans Abbey, Maltings Arts Theatre and the Abbey Theatre. For those who want to play a more active role there are a range of acting, dance and music classes running throughout the city – another great way to meet like-minded people in the area.
However, if you are just visiting the city, make the most of the parks and gardens on offer. Whether you are meeting a date or travelling with friends, you can discover lots of green spaces and places to go. Again, if you’re feeling green fingered and want to get involved consider joining one of the many gardening groups. If you can, try to catch a local festival such as the food and drink festival in October or the St Albans Beer Festival in late September.
