GREAT DAYS OUT IN LIVERPOOL

LIVERPOOL OFFERS AN ABUNDANCE OF THINGS TO DO WITH DAYS OUT AND TOP ATTRACTIONS FOR THE WHOLE FAMILY TO ENJOY

If someone mentions Liverpool, what comes to mind? The city’s incredible musical heritage, perhaps, or its world-class football teams? Or maybe the famous Royal Albert Dock? These are all top-class assets, of course, but this lively city has even more to offer than that.

With more museums and galleries than anywhere in the country outside London and one of the largest collections of Grade 1-listed buildings in the UK you’ll never be short of something to do.

What’s more, you can get around with ease. Relatively small but perfectly formed, Liverpool is perfect for exploring on foot – and that’s the best way to take in the sights of this fascinating city.

There’s a lot to pack into your Liverpool break, from museums to elegant buildings to historic sites. So put on some comfy shoes and get out there. The compact city centre is easy to discover on two feet.

MAGNIFICENT WATERFRONT

A great place to start is Liverpool’s magnificent waterfront – the jewel in the city’s crown and a huge source of civic pride. The iconic Liver Birds, Three Graces, cathedrals and other landmarks provide a stunning backdrop to the River Mersey. Taking pride of place at the Pier Head is a statue of The Beatles, sculpted by Andrew Edwards and weighing in at 1.2 tonnes.

Before you begin exploring, pay a visit to the Museum of Liverpool – the world’s first national museum devoted to the history of a regional city. A variety of exhibitions tell the story of the city’s global significance through its unique geography, history and culture.

Next on the agenda? Take a trip on a ferry ‘cross the Mersey’. Seeing the world-class Liverpool skyline from the water is an experience you are unlikely to forget, and there are lots of journey options, including night cruises. Mersey Ferries offer a River Explorer ticket with guided commentary, as well as longer cruises along to the Manchester Ship Canal.

Royal Albert Dock is packed with attractions, including Tate Liverpool, which houses a fine collection of British and international modern and contemporary

art. It’s also home to the Maritime Museum and the International Slavery Museum.

The award-winning Beatles Story, the world’s largest permanent exhibition purely devoted to the life and times of the Fab Four, is an absolute must for music fans. If you’re up for a memorable family adventure with a bit of competition thrown in, try Escape Hunt, the Dock’s very own immersive escape room game. Liverpool boasts two cathedrals, immortalised in the old folk song In My Liverpool Home. Even though they’re

“A GREAT PLACE TO START IS LIVERPOOL’S MAGNIFICENT WATERFRONT – THE JEWEL IN THE CITY’S CROWN AND A HUGE SOURCE OF CIVIC PRIDE”

vastly different architecturally, they’re equally majestic and beautiful. Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral was opened in 1967, and features modern works of art, a crypt and glorious stained-glass windows.

Liverpool Anglican Cathedral, described by writer and poet Sir John Betjeman as “one of the great buildings of the world”, took 74 years to build, from the foundation stone being laid in 1904. Check out the tower, which boasts spectacular views across the city.

Prefer an organised excursion? There are plenty of bus and walking tours, including The Magical Mystery Tour, a two-hour exploration of Beatles Liverpool. There are lots more options for Beatles fans, including National Trust tours of Mendips and Forthlin Road, former childhood homes of John Lennon and Paul McCartney.

There are walking tours taking in the city’s rich history and many landmarks, including historic Chinatown, the oldest in Europe. Liverpool’s spooky past can also be explored on ghost tours packed full of sinister tales – not for the faint-hearted.

CLOCKWISE FROM TOP EXPLORE THE ROYAL ALBERT DOCK; KIDS WILL LOVE THE BEATLES STORY; INTERNATIONAL SLAVERY MUSEUM

If you’re a footy fan, tours of the city’s hallowed football grounds are a must. Northeast of the city centre is Anfield, home of Liverpool FC. Sign up for a self-guided audio tour and you’ll get to visit the players’ lounge, dressing rooms and press room, and feel your spine tingle as you walk down the famous Players’ Tunnel. There’s also an on-site exhibition, featuring all the LFC memorabilia you can handle.

If you have thing for heights, you can experience Anfield Stadium from a completely different perspective by taking part in The Anfield Abseil. Climb to the top of the Main Stand roof, then lean back over the top edge and start your 100ft descent down the side of the stadium. Take in stunning city views, go past the club’s huge official crest, then safely land after your adrenaline-fuelled adventure.

You can get the inside info on LFC’s local rivals, Everton, at Goodison Park. Expert guides will take you around the changing rooms and the Directors’ box, plus you’ll get to pose for photos in the media centre and experience those pre-match nerves as you emerge from the players tunnel to the sound of the Z-Cars theme tune.

Football not your thing? Head to Aintree Racecourse to discover the home of the world’s most famous steeplechase – the Grand National. The Grand National Festival takes place over three days each April. As well as watching top-class racing, you can enjoy live music and entertainment, join the fashionistas on Ladies Day and take a guided walking or minibus tour to see the famous fences before the event begins.

If you’re looking for something on the quirky side, try the Mersey Tunnel Tours or an exploration of the Williamson Tunnels – a labyrinth of tunnels in the

Edge Hill area of the city, built under the direction of eccentric businessman Joseph Williamson.

For fans of military history, a visit to the Western Approaches Museum is a must. The venue was the underground command centre for British forces during World War II.

You can also get a fascinating glimpse into the past with an Old Dock guided tour, taking in the historic dock that now lies beneath the Liverpool ONE complex. Got a head for heights? Take a trip to the viewing gallery at the top of the landmark 400ft (123m) Radio City Tower (or to give it its official name, St John’s Beacon).

FURTHER AFIELD

If you’re travelling with kids, you’ll find plenty to keep them busy in Liverpool, even on one of the city’s many rainy days! The Museums of Liverpool’s Little Liverpool gallery is a hands-on fantasy world where children can play and learn.

If all the excitement of the big smoke gets a bit much, there’s plenty to explore outside Liverpool, with a healthy dose of fresh air to boot. Think windswept beaches, wildlife centres and a good smattering of historic country homes.

Just five miles north of Liverpool lies Crosby, home to Another Place, an art installation by renowned artist Antony Gormley. It features 100 spectacular cast-iron, life-size figures located across three metres of foreshore, stretching around a kilometre out to sea.

A further five miles north, you’ll reach Formby with its stunning sand-dune-lined coastline, pine woods and

SAFARI DRIVE

If you’re into wildlife, get over to WWT Martin Mere Wetland Centre in Burscough, West Lancashire, around a 40-minute drive from Liverpool. Whatever the time of year, there’s always something to see at the vast marshlands, from ducklings to migrating swans.

For an experience that gets you up close and personal with animals, including lions, elephants and baboons, visit Knowsley Safari Park, just a 30-minute drive from Liverpool city centre. Visitors are taken on a thrilling five-mile safari drive – the longest in the UK – though take care in the baboon enclosure, as the cheeky primates are very fond of snapping off car windscreen wipers! You can also explore a large part of the safari park on foot, including sea lion displays, meerkats, giraffes and play areas, as well as the tiger trail.

X IN THE CITY, 10 WOOD STREET, LIVERPOOL L1 4AQ | 0151 7090297

“VISIT THE BOOM BATTLE BAR ON ST GEORGE’S WAY. AS WELL AS CRAFT BEERS AND COCKTAILS, THERE’S A 100 FT CRAZY GOLF COURSE, BEER PONG AND ELECTRIC DARTS”

find all kinds of people out on the town, from students to couples to raucous stag and hen parties.

A night out in Liverpool is never boring!

If you prefer a quiet drink in a pub oozing with character, you’ve come to the right city! Head to Hope Street for the wonderful Ye Cracke, a favourite of John and Cynthia Lennon when they were arts students. A stone’s throw away is a hidden gem of a pub, The Pilgrim. And try to make time for The Philharmonic Dining Rooms, known locally as ‘The Phil’, and honoured with the title of ‘most ornate pub in England’ – the original Victorian gents toilets have to be seen to be believed!

Other highlights include The Caledonia on Catherine Street, a music venue and eatery that’s also dog-friendly, and The Baltic Fleet near the waterfront, which has been serving ale for more than 400 years. The award-

winning Fly in the Loaf, on Hardman Street, is a must on any pub crawl itinerary.

If your tastes are more Guinness than G&T, there’s great ‘craic’ in Liverpool. The winds of Irish influence have blown here for centuries, and there are plenty of places to indulge, including Shenanigans on Tithebarn Street, Flanagan’s Apple on Mathew Street and Pogue Mahone on Seel Street. You’re in for a treat if you’re here on St Patrick’s Day. The entire city gets involved in commemorating the patron saint of Ireland with a pint or two and a parade.

Want to help your pint down with a round of sport?

A recent Liverpool addition is the Boom Battle Bar on St George’s Way. As well as craft beers and signature cocktails, there’s a 100 ft crazy golf course, beer pong and electric darts.

BARS & PUBS

For even more action, head out of the city centre, where you’ll find fantastic bars and pubs on bohemian Lark Lane, near Sefton Park and around lively Penny Lane and Allerton Road. A few miles north of Liverpool lie Waterloo and Crosby, which are a safe bet for character pubs.

Highlights include The Volunteer Canteen in Waterloo. Known locally as the ‘Volly’, it’s tiny, but perfectly formed, and there’s nothing small about its beer list. The Crows Nest in nearby Crosby is another petite community pub, with bags of charm and atmosphere.

There are lots of great places to sit outside and soak up the atmosphere when the weather is fine. Fazenda Rodizio bar and grill boasts a wonderful outside space to sip wine or a beer, while taking in the stunning architecture and rich history of the Grade 2-listed Exchange Flags building.

For more people watching amidst the best of Liverpool’s rich heritage, The Quarter in the Georgian Quarter is another excellent option. Magnificent views of the city’s World Heritage waterfront are thrown in for free when you eat and drink at Matou at the Mersey Ferry Terminal Building, Pier Head.

Cocktails – shaken and stirred – are easy to find in Liverpool. Sample them alongside the Praise the Rays Brunch at The Alchemist on Brunswick Street or try your hand at cocktail shaking at Red Door on Berry Street, where you can take a masterclass. You could also sip G&Ts whilst taking in the panoramic views of the city’s docklands on the outdoor terrace of the Carpathia Champagne Bar & Restaurant in the Baltic Triangle.

Love cocktails and football? Combine your passions at the Bastion Bar & Restaurant at the Shankly Hotel on Victoria Street, which is crammed full of memorabilia celebrating legendary football manager Bill Shankly.

POPULAR VENUES

Liverpool enjoys a lively lesbian, gay, bisexual transgender and queer scene, and while not quite on the scale of Manchester, there’s still plenty going on. In fact, Liverpool was the first British city to install rainbow motifs on street signs to identify the local Gay Quarter. Popular venues around the Stanley Street hub include Heaven, GBar, The Navy Bar and Superstar Boudoir, which put on some terrific drag acts. The Lisbon Bar is a well-known venue with a diverse crowd and a vibrant atmosphere.

Whether you want to dance the night away, sip cocktails or spend a night at a comedy club or the theatre, Liverpool has what you’re looking for. You may just need to book another break in the city to recover!
