Secrets Revealed at Bletchley Park

On the Bank Holiday, my family visited Bletchley Park. Now the word going through your head right now is 'What?' so let me explain. Bletchley Park is the home of British code breaking and also the birthplace of modern technology. Basically, it's where all the code breaking was done during World War II!

When we arrived at Bletchley Park, my family and I walked into the first exhibition. It was all about the history of the World War two. We then walked around Huts 3, 6 and 8. They were very interesting and factual but also fun because there was interactive activities. We then had lunch in the café. In the garden there was a playground and a giant chess board. Our next stop was the mansion, where we learnt about the Imitation Game, the Oscar-nominated movie - starring Benedict Cumberbatch - which was filmed partly at Bletchley Park. Hut 11 was next which was all about the machines the code breakers used to crack the enigma, the code the Germans used. In there wel earnt how to do it ourselves using another interactive media. Finally, our trip was over and we headed home. Overall, it was an amazing day.
