What to see in Liverpool
In Great Britain (or more precisely, in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland), any tourist will find a city to their liking. One of the most "tidbits" is the largest city in England - Liverpool. Without a doubt, at the mention of him, many will immediately remember the notorious Cavern club, in which the Beatles gave their first concerts. But the idea that this is where Liverpool's attractions end is a big misconception.
Liverpool landmarks
The entire look of this port city, which is Liverpool, is an excellent example of Victorian architecture (late 18th century). A particularly large concentration of such buildings is located in the Albert Dock area, which, together with the adjacent territories, was included in the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2004. There are countless museums, shops and cafes along the entire length of the famous dock. Of the most significant museums in this area, it is worth highlighting the Meriside Maritime Museum, which will appeal to all lovers of the maritime business; Liverpool branch of the Tate Gallery, able to interest connoisseurs of contemporary art; the Beatles Museum, which will appeal to all fans of the "Magnificent Four".
From the architectural structures of the city, it is worth mentioning the Royal Life Building, which is a complex with the administrative buildings of the seaport. He is a real gem of Liverpool. The tower of this building is crowned with the largest dial in England (even larger than the famous London Big Ben!) In addition, two towers are decorated with the famous Liver bird, which vigilantly guard the city. According to local legend, Liverpool will cease to exist if these birds fly away.
Another attraction of Liverpool is the Anglican Cathedral. It is considered the largest Anglican cathedral in England and the fifth largest cathedral in the world.
But it's not just history buffs and architecture aficionados who will find Liverpool interesting. Do not forget that this city is a real athlete! The most famous football clubs in Great Britain - Liverpool and Everton - are based precisely on Liverpool stadiums. In addition, the popular basketball team, the Everton Tigers, is also located here. There is also a hippodrome in the city, where annual world races are held.
It is in this cultural capital of Europe, which Liverpool became in 2008, that the largest Chinatown in Europe is located, which pleases its visitors with a large list of goods and services. Any shopaholic will find many interesting things not only in Chinatown, but also in countless shopping centers, shops and boutiques peacefully adjacent to ancient buildings.
Liverpool will not only give unforgettable impressions and memories to all lovers of history, antiquity and legends, but will also pleasantly surprise and delight young fashionistas, connoisseurs of everything modern.
