Just 13 miles east of Cambridge, Newmarket has been a center of English horse racing since 1174. Horse fans will enjoy visiting the National Horse Racing Museum on the picturesque High Street.
Exhibits relate to the history of the "sport of kings," still one of the most popular sports in Britain. The collection includes paintings of famous horses and jockeys, old saddles, tack, and trophies.
There are several stables actually in the town, not to mention the famous racecourse and training "gallops" close by.
