December 18, 2021 Etsuko Causey

Famed for its soccer team and music scene, which has produced the likes of the Smiths and Oasis, this center for sports and the arts is a down-to-earth and friendly city. The so-called Capital of the North has overcome industrial decline, bombing (in WWII and by the IRA) to become a confident and cosmopolitan city of well over two million. It is well served by a bus and light rail network. Top attractions include the Lowry art complex, arcade Affleck's Palace and Canal Street gay village.

Fletcher Moss Park & Botanical Gardens

Reviewed By Ihatethatduck - Manchester, United Kingdom

I’ve never been here before but went today as part of my daily exercise and what a stunning place. There’s so much to see from the woodland walk, the River Mersey to the amazing rock garden which has to be seen. I will definitely be visiting again when the lockdown is over with friends.

Alexandra Park

Reviewed By Jenan2000 - Hawalli, Kuwait

Very nice park. Not as big as Heaton park but not small as well. You can spend couple of hours exercising or relaxing on the benches. Nice lake with ducks and swans. Kids will have fun too.
