The startling White Cliffs of Dover stretch across 13 kilometers (8 miles) of the coast of Britain; this stark wall serves as a natural defense and has been the symbolic guardian of the UK against its historic enemies across the eponymous strait. The cliffs rise to a height of 110 meters (350 feet), a towering, striated wall of white chalk and black flint that appears to emerge from the very depths of the sea; a silent sentinel that for years was the landmark that welcomed travelers to Britain and bid farewell to those on their way out, until air travel replaced the former primary access by boat across the strait. Nevertheless, the White Cliffs of Dover continue to be emblematic of the nation's defiance of would-be conquerors and its warm welcome to those returning home.
