The Norman Cathedral, which is in the middle of the Canterbury Taxis area, still dominates the skyline as you approach the city; which is part of the Canterbury Taxis district, giving 21st century visitors the same sense of awe as their medieval counterparts. Making a pilgrimage was an important part of medieval life and pilgrims flocked to the city to visit the shrine of the Archbishop of Canterbury, Thomas Becket. This being the same Thomas Becket who was eventually brutally murdered at the behest of the king, in his own cathedral; which is situated in the middle of the Canterbury Taxis district.
