LIVERPOOL
Like a thousand different cities but nowhere else on Earth.
Liverpool is one of the world’s most distinctive and creative cities. From our stunning World Heritage waterfront to our vibrant culture, stylish shops and restaurants, we’re a city with a unique spirit and personality. We’re a place experiencing a rapid and dramatic renaissance. In recent years our economy has grown faster than any other UK city, and in 2008 we became European Capital of Culture. Liverpool’s downtown residential population has grown tenfold in 15 years, as more and more people have been attracted by the breadth of our offer and the warmth of our welcome. Once again, we’ve just been voted one of the five best places to visit in the UK. But, better still, why not own your own property here and be part of Liverpool’s renaissance? We’re a city rich in history, home to Europe’s oldest Chinatown and boasting more listed and historic buildings than anywhere outside London. We’re mad about music and fanatical about sport. We’re home to two internationally renowned football clubs and the world’s greatest horse race. We stage spectacular events and festivals and have more live venues than you could dream of visiting. Today Liverpool is about thriving universities, cuttingedge galleries and theatres, ground-breaking creative businesses, award-winning restaurants and trail-blazing modern architecture. We’re a city that’s going places.

Liverpool is alive with reminders of The Beatles - the biggest pop phenomenon the world has ever seen. Visit Mathew Street and the legendary Cavern Club, take a Magical Mystery Tour of Beatles sites in the city, or drop in at the official Beatles Story permanent exhibition to capture the excitement of Beatlemania. The ultimate horse racing steeplechase, the Grand National, is broadcast to watching millions, and on National weekend, Aintree Racecourse is the focal point of the sporting world. Visits by the Royal De Luxe Giant Puppets capture worldwide headlines and bring hundreds of thousands of excited spectators into the city, as do events like the Liverpool International Music Festival. North Point will give you a front row seat to the best Liverpool has to offer. Add the big name shopping brands at Liverpool ONE, the bustling activity around the restored Albert Dock and the splendid architecture of St George’s Hall and the Three Graces and it’s an unbeatable combination.
