It is the "capital of the North", is an unforgettable purple, is an intoxicating city...


First of all, Manchester is the historical and cultural capital of the United Kingdom. The city dates back to Roman times and has numerous historical sites and museums. The Manchester Museum and Art Gallery, for example, has a large collection of art and historical artefacts, giving visitors an insight into the history and culture of Manchester.

In addition, Manchester also has the world's largest independent newspaper building, Manchester News Square, which is the birthplace of journalism and a symbol of Manchester.
In Manchester, you can see the edge of the British industrial revolution city, but also feel the "heavy metal" atmosphere rarely seen in London. Tram tracks running through the city centre are reminiscent of continental Europe.

On my first visit to Manchester, a city in the northwest of England, I encountered the violent climate typical of the north. When I walked into the city's Bridgewater Concert Hall, it was still sunny, and half an hour later I went out, but it was suddenly cold and rainy like a knife, and I took a few steps to cover my collar, and suddenly a strong light came down, and when I looked up, the day changed back to dark blue, as if it had never changed.

It was only a big, moving cloud on top of the concert hall that gave away the secret, moving as fast as a special effect from a fantasy movie. As the freezing rain eases, the tram passes the New Bridge, flanked by the red sand and stone Georgian buildings of the 19th century. In the background stands the 47-storey silver Beetham Tower, the highest elevation in Manchester City. My first impression of Manchester was "fantastic".

Manchester is also Britain's shopping paradise. The city is home to numerous shopping centres and boutiques, such as the famous Manchester Royal Exchange, Trafford Shopping Centre and others. In these shopping centers, you can buy a variety of internationally renowned brands.
In the central part of the city you can find the Arndale Centre, the largest shopping centre in Europe.

The Adele Shopping Centre is located in the centre of Manchester, covering 13,000 square metres. The modern style of the building, with a lot of glass, mirrors and LED lights and other elements, is one of the landmarks of Manchester.
There are many famous brand stores in the mall, covering fashion, household goods, jewelry, electronic products and other categories. The mall also has a wide variety of dining venues, from fast food restaurants to high-end restaurants, offering a diverse selection of gastronomic options. In addition, the shopping center also has a movie theater, a game center and a children's entertainment area, providing customers with a rich variety of entertainment facilities.


The more seriously you walk down, the more you feel the characteristics of the former industrial revolution town in the architecture and urban style, both the working class edge of Glasgow, the same type of industrial revolution city in the United Kingdom, in addition to the gorgeous old buildings, there are rare heavy metal taste in London. The tram tracks running through the city centre are reminiscent of continental Europe.

At Manchester's Heritage distillery, you can sample local Thwaites or Hydes fresh-brews and experience Manchester's unique beer culture. These pubs are great places to eat on the cheap, with specials such as Dover Sole, roast steak, beef pie, fish and chips giving you a real taste of Manchester.

The Old Wellington, City Centre
Is Manchester's most recognisable pub, a huge beer garden, adjacent to Sinclair's Oyster Bar, in the Middle Ages quarter near Manchester Cathedral. This tavern was built in 1552 and is very old, with original features and a Tudor-style appearance. Old Wellington offers a variety of draft beers, as well as wine and cocktails and, of course, bar snacks.

In addition to shopping and food, Manchester has many attractions worth visiting. Examples include the Victoria Station shopping Centre, the Royal Arthurian Theatre and Albert Square. Here, you can enjoy the unique architecture and cityscape of Manchester.
Albert Square

Among them, the famous Manchester Town Hall is accompanied by the square, which is a representative of British Victorian Gothic architecture. Manchester is a long way from its "steam and sweat" days,
But Albert Square still connects all sides of the city, echoing the past and the future. As the most core public space in the city of Manchester, it has witnessed almost every major festival celebration and cultural and artistic events.
Christmas is the best time in Albert Square. As the core area of the city's Christmas market, you can enjoy the rich Christmas atmosphere here, not to miss the various food and souvenirs at the market!
