Find out the top 5 places to visit and explore when in Liverpool below so that you never have to worry when you’re in the city.
Royal Albert Dock
Take a leisurely stroll across the Royal Albert Dock and enjoy the beautiful views of the River Mersey. There is nothing like taking a walk and enjoying the scenery, which is exactly what you can do during your Liverpool visit. The Albert Dock is the famous waterfront at the vibrant heart of Liverpool, and there are places to stay, eat, drink and play while in the city. However, the history of the dock is complex and interesting, which makes it ideal for visitors who want to find out more. After the official opening in 1847, the dock has since become a colourful and cultured part of Liverpool which makes for a good day out. If you’re looking to get out of the wind for an hour or two, pop into their new Turncoat bar which offers wood-fired pizzas, a range of gins and local beer too.
The Beatles Story
Liverpool is possibly most famous for the world-class band, The Beatles, who were one of the biggest rock bands in history. The Beatles Story is the immersive journey experience of the four band members from young men into their dizzy heights of fame and fortune. Be transported into the world of each member and hear their story unfold through audio guides and authentic memorabilia. The Beatles Story has won multiple awards for their exhibitions and exclusive Fab4 Café. It’s a great day out for any Beatles fan, but it’s also ideal if you want to learn more about the impact the band had on Liverpool and future music!
The Baltic Market
An up-and-coming district of Liverpool City Centre that was once a derelict area, The Baltic Triangle, is now an innovative hub for young professionals, local businesses and creatives to collaborate and collect ideas. Not only this, The Baltic Triangle is becoming one of the best places to live, with The Times labelling the area ‘the coolest place to live’ in their top 20 list. While the tourist attractions are booming in the area, the residential availability is also rising with property company RWinvest being involved with the newest hotel-style residential tower, One Baltic Square, which is set to change the face of the Liverpool skyline. If you fancy something to drink and a bite to eat, The Baltic Market is a unique street food market experience that you won’t forget.
