Manchester

Football matches at Old Trafford Stadium, grand concerts at AO Arena, and virtual reality experiences at X-GenVR: there's always a reason to visit Manchester. Exploring the exhibitions on six floors of the National Football Museum and unique artifacts at the Manchester Museum (on the university campus) is free of charge. Football fans can book tours of the Etihad Stadium.

Manchester is a city of designers and engineers. Works by local artisans can be found at the Manchester Craft & Design Centre. Interesting exhibitions and artist meetings take place at creative centers like HOME and The Lowry. Both children and adults are thrilled by the interactive exhibits at MOSI (Museum of Science and Industry).

It's worth visiting the Manchester Art Gallery and the Whitworth Art Gallery. Inside the John Rylands Library, you'll find an atmosphere reminiscent of Harry Potter films. The Victorian era is preserved at the aristocratic mansion of writer Elizabeth Gaskell. Sharks and coral gardens can be seen at SEA LIFE.

Beautiful views of Manchester can be enjoyed from the Castlefield Viaduct and Hartshead Pike. Pleasant walks are guaranteed in Heaton Park, where concerts and festivals often take place in the summer. You'll find interesting information about the city during a river cruise.
