As European centre of culture in 2008 Liverpool has a history of being one of the United Kingdom’s most energetic Cities with a huge choice when it comes to shopping and brilliant restaurants. Situated in the very heart of Liverpool is Liverpools biggest shopping centre, St John’s which is wonderful for those people searching for a fantastic shopping sensation. There is also a new large shopping area the Met Quarter and Liverpool one which is filled to brimming with anything you could want 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 shoulders with WAG’s in the top fashion stores of New Cathedral Street and Exchange Square. The variety of Manchester restaurants is brilliant with fantastic Italian Restaurants, Chinese restaurants, Indian Restaurants, Tai Restaurants and all restaurants in between. The massive Traford Centre is an amazing area to shop with over 280 stores, 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 quick 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 worth taking a journey to these brilliant cities as they will provide you with a fantastic time out in cities that provide for the discerning shopper. The buildings and history of Liverpool and Manchester is stimulating with lots of fascinating facts to be discovered in respective museums and historical tours. And with the Beatles coming out of Liverpool, there are many sites to look out for of musical interest.
I really enjoy going to these cities as they are fantastic for ideas and inspiration and even if you just go for a walk round some good food and an evenings entertainment you wont be unhappy.
