Dover is a market town and seaport on the
southeast coast of Kent, England. Its
estimated population is 36,000.
It is Britain's nearest point to mainland
Europe, being only 34km (21miles) from
Calais, France. As England's principal
cross-channel port, Dover's development has
been chiefly due to the cross-channel
traffic, which includes train, ferry,
hovercraft, and other services.
