Local Attractions
From the wide, flowing Mersey to the countryside and beaches beyond the suburbs, Liverpool is more than just a city with a big reputation. It is the centre of a vast area of beauty, culture and entertainment that deserves exploration. Thanks to the legacy of 800 years of civic pride and massive recent investment, many of the attractions on offer are superb value or even free.
The Waterfront
A stroll around the UNESCO-listed waterfront will take up a morning and probably fill your camera's memory card. The Three Graces, Albert Dock and Pier Head are as iconic as they are dramatic, and delving into their history in the city's museums is an enlightening (and free) experience.
Art and Culture
Liverpool's commitment to art, both high and popular, is without question. It plays a part in everyday Liverpool life, not just in the Tate and Walker galleries and countless smaller, cutting-edge spaces, but also in the city's musical culture that has drawn influence from all around the world in this cosmopolitan city.
