City Centre

Liverpool city centre, known locally as Town, is like something out of a movie - because it is! From The Batman to Peaky Blinders our streets make for a stunning backdrop, filled with more Grade 1 listed buildings and national museums and galleries than any UK city outside of London. And with a bevvy of bars, shops and restaurants, it’s more than just a pretty face.

Baltic Triangle

New York has Brooklyn, London has Shoreditch and Liverpool has the Baltic Triangle. Where else can you find iconic street art, incredible music venues, independent coffee shops and breweries, street food and vintage markets AND a golf course inside a warehouse all in one postcode?

Ropewalks

In the past, this area was central to Liverpool’s maritime rope manufacturing industry, now the cobbled streets between Duke Street and Bold Street are home to some of the most stylish bars and eateries of the city. This independently minded retail and entertainment quarter is the perfect introduction to Liverpool.

Georgian Quarter

If you want a cathedral - we’ve got one to spare! Liverpool’s Georgian Quarter is bookended by the two sisters heading up either end of Hope Street, but there’s more to this area than just elegant Georgian architecture. Get lost in its public parks, cram in the culture at its two theatres, or spend a day wining and dining across loads of great places to eat and a traditional English pub scene.

Knowledge Quarter

They call the top end of town the Knowledge Quarter. Nestled in beside the University of Liverpool, the walkways that link our two universities are a mix of Victorian gothic and 60s modernism alongside hi-tech new centres of learning. This is where great things happen.

Commercial District

Liverpool’s business district is filled with ornate banking halls, lofty skyscrapers and eyecatching late 19th century office buildings. Got a head for heights? Try dining at one of our penthouse restaurants or hunt out a secret roof garden.

Waterfront

Our iconic Mersey waterfront offers everything from a sing-along in The Beatles Story to a picturesque, if a little windy, riverside stroll. Magnificent mercantile architecture like the famous Liver Building is nestled alongside Turner Prize winning contemporary art - try finding more culture and history per square inch

Liverpool has a great range of clubs and events orientated towards student life. The nightlife is one of the main attractions of the city. So far, I’ve experienced so many new opportunities and had the chance to meet a lot of new people.
