From their discoveries, Jorvik Viking Centre has recreated life as it would have been in this Viking city. Travel through time and witness the layout of the houses, see the craftsmen at work, hear the gossiping neighbours and smell the cooking and the cesspit to experience how the Vikings lived all those years ago. Located only 13 minutes away from Holiday Inn York.
