Explore Great Yarmouth through the eyes, ears and noses of historians and artists, taking in the sights, sounds, tastes and smells that combine to make Great Yarmouth what it is today. 

1 WOW OF A TIME! will take inspiration from the history of the day trip and look at how it has helped to shape and change the physical and psychological nature of Great Yarmouth.

A walking-tour has been devised that will explore how the tourist industry has steered the cultural landscape of Great Yarmouth, helping to make it the unique place it is today. For many it is their year-round home, and visitors come and go, providing a source of income and livelihood, and affecting the shape and nature of the place. We will visit some of the architectural highlights that have been created to feed the tourist machine that rolls in and out of the town like the lapping of the waves, but responding to a seasonal rather than a lunar pull.
