Manchester and Liverpool are fantastic for shopping and eating out.
Liverpool was voted European centre of culture in 2008 and has a history of being one of the United Kingdom’s most vibrant Cities with a huge choice when it comes to shopping and great restaurants. Located in the very midst of Liverpool is Liverpools largest shopping centre, St John’s which is fantastic for those people searching for a great shopping experience. There is also a new huge shopping centre the Met Quarter and Liverpool one which is filled to brimming with everything you could need on a shopping expedition.
Manchester restaurants are some of the best in the country, and when it comes to retail therapy you may well be rubbing elbows with WAG’s in the top fashion stores of New Cathedral Street and Exchange Square. The choice of Manchester restaurants is amazing with fantastic Italian Restaurants, Chinese restaurants, Indian Restaurants, Tai Restaurants and all restaurants in between. The massive Traford Centre is a brilliant place to shop with over 280 shops, 38 restaurants, 20 screen cinema and fantastic leisure facilities.
There are lots of flights in and out of Liverpool and Manchester Area making the journey a fast and easy destination to get to and enjoy. Although personally I just hope that the plane has the correct underwater escape lighting.
If you love retail therapy it is of benefit making a trip to these brilliant cities as they will provide you with a fantastic time out in cities that provide for the choosey shopper. The buildings and history of Liverpool and Manchester is stimulating with lots of fascinating facts to be discovered in particular museums and historical tours. And with the Beatles coming out of Liverpool, there are lots of sites to look out for of musical interest.
I really enjoy visiting these cities as they are great for ideas and inspiration and even if you just go for a walk round some good food and an evenings entertainment you wont be disappointed.
