Manchester, une an extraordinary cultural experience
What we love about Manchester...
- The gentle strolls along its canals and through the Castlefield area
- The street art and the Northern Quarter, a hotbed of alternative culture
- Its world-famous football teams: Manchester United and Manchester City
- Its Neo-Gothic architectural heritage and its 19th century buildings
Manchester prospered during the industrial revolution and still bears its imprint today. The famous city is changing fast and, over the years, has become one of England’s most iconic hubs of art and culture. So why not explore this characterful city with its wealth of cultural attractions? Its original red-brick houses, its vibrant city centre, its abandoned neighbourhoods that are just begging to be explored, its monuments steeped in history (the John Rylands Library, the Town Hall and the Imperial War Museum North), its iconic museums and its football culture are bound to amaze you. Named by Lonely Planet as one of the top 10 cities to visit in 2016, Manchester is a city of many facets that guarantees you a world apart experience.
