A tour of Bristol graffiti artist Banksy's work is in the running to be named one of the country's top tourist attractions.

National tourist board VisitEngland is running a competition on Facebook to find the top 101 Things To Do Before You Go Abroad - designed to inspire us to take more holidays in England.
