A Russian TikToker has racked up a million views with a video of Knaresborough that she described as "a place in England so beautiful I can't believe it's real".
The clip by alievskaya.uk was taken at Knaresborough Castle overlooking the River Nidd as a train crosses the viaduct.

She writes on her website:
