| Thank you for calling the Tourist Line. |
| There are many different ways of getting round the city |
| and we'd like to suggest some you may not have thought of. |
| How about a city trip by boat? |
| There are four main stopping points - from west to east: |
| stop A: Green Banks, |
| stop B: City Bridge, |
| stop C: Roman Landing |
| and stop D: Newtown. |
| You can find the main booking office at stop A. |
| The first boat leaves at 8 a.m. |
| and the last one at 6.30 p.m. |
| There are also many attractions you can visit along the river. |
| At Stop A, if you have time, |
| you can visit the fine 16th century palace here |
| built for the king with its beautiful formal gardens. |
| It's very near the booking office. |
| Now, you can enjoy every corner of this superb residence. |
| Stop B - Why don't you visit Tower Restaurant with its wide range of refreshments? |
| This is a place where you can sit and enjoy the wonderful views over the old commercial and banking centre of the city. |
| Stop C is the area where, in the first century AD, invading soldiers crossed the river; |
| this was much shallower than it is now. |
| That's why this area is called Roman Landing. |
| There's an interactive museum to visit here |
| with a large shop which has a good range of local history books. |
| At the furthest point of the trip, stop D, |
| the most exciting place to visit is the new Entertainment Complex |
| with seven-screen cinema, bowling alley and video games arcade. |
