A key trading port since the 1700s, Liverpool is a city rich with history, some of which can be seen on display at the Merseyside Maritime Museum and the Liverpool Museum. Although the city takes great pride in its history, Liverpool is also thoroughly modern. The warehouses of the old Albert Dock have now been converted into shops, apartments and restaurants and there is also a Beatles museum.

Art lovers are well catered for. Choose from the Walker Art Gallery, the Lady Lever Gallery and the Tate Liverpool, or catch a show at the Everyman theatre. Once you've had your fill of culture, you can indulge in some retail therapy at the Liverpool One shopping centre, chill out in Sefton Park or head out for a day trip to the coast to enjoy the beaches and sand dunes of Formby and Crosby, as well as the cast-iron sculptures by Antony Gormley. Day trips to the Wirral and the 'soap town' of Port Sunlight are also recommended.

To really see Liverpool in all of its glory - including a great view of the Royal Liver Building - head out across the River Mersey on one of the ferries that were made famous in a hit song by local band, Gerry and the Pacemakers.

The city caters for all types of visitor, with budget city centre hotels as well as top-class five-star hotels and luxury hotels...
