Day-time in Manchester
City heritage
If you haven’t been to Manchester for a while, you might want to start planning. If you’ve never been to Manchester you’d better read on. Unofficially the capital of the region, Manchester has achieved a spectacular renaissance and a new life breathes throughout the city.
Take architecture for example: Manchester’s new buildings are bold and spectacular but the most remarkable change has happened to what was already there. It’s like the curtains have been opened and the whole city can be seen anew. This new light has given 21st century Manchester a confidence and identity all of its own.
Take a Blue Badge guided walk or tour and you’ll see, or more importantly feel, what we mean. You’ll find out about the fascinating history of the city and its people, and soak up the atmosphere at the same time. Take a look at one of the galleries or museums, or just stroll round the shops. Whatever you choose to do in Manchester, it’s the perfect place for a citybreak.
