Manchester United Kingdom

Manchester, with its fascinating museums, rejuvenating city centre and renowned musical heritage, is a thrilling place to visit. It boasts a rich history and culture, and of course is the home of the world's most beloved football team, Manchester United. But above all, Manchester is a lively city that takes great pleasure in entertaining its visitors. The local Gothic Cathedral is a unique architectural feature of the area. Manchester's Gothic cathedral has a captivating interior, adorned with detailed wood carvings and medieval furnishings. Nearby is the Chetham's Library and School of Music, believed to be the oldest public library in the world as well as Manchester's oldest building. Rich in grand Victorian and Edwardian architecture, the massive neo-Gothic Town Hall on Albert Square is a spectacle both inside and out, with murals of Manchester's history decorating the building's grand ceremonial hall. For art enthusiasts, Manchester Art Gallery houses an excellent collection of British and European art. Undoubtedly, the unofficial capital of the north is a fantastic place to shop, drink and eat. Rebuilt after an IRA bomb attack in 1996, the Millennium Quarter is home to Manchester's mainstream shopping centres, while the Corn Exchange is a sanctuary of fashion and style boutiques. The nightlife scene is legendary with many traditional pubs rubbing shoulders with sophisticated lounge bars and noisy clubs. So while it is a city with a past, Manchester is firmly focused on the future.
