Liverpool City Tour
In addition to football club, think of Liverpool and you immediately think of The Beatles and, of course, that unique Scouse accent. The heart of Merseyside lies on the east bank of the Mersey estuary, just three miles from the sea.
The origin of the city's name first appeared in 1173 in a charter granted by Henry II and is traditionally connected with the mythological Liver Bird (pronounced "lyver"), a seagull-like bird seen in the city's coat of arms.
And now, The city has many handsome historic buildings as well as numerous gardens and parks, museums, and recreational facilities.
Liverpool also has the distinction of being named a UNESCO World Heritage Site, a designation that covers six locations in the center of Liverpool including Pier Head, Albert Dock... You must not miss this beautiful city.
The Beatles
Liverpool is famous as the birthplace of The Beatles.
Various tours offer fans the opportunity to follow in their footsteps (Penny Lane, Strawberry Fields) and usually include The Beatles Story in Albert Dock and the rebuilt Cavern Club, where they made their debut in 1961.
Other Beatles related sites include the Cavern Walks (murals by Cynthia Lennon); The Beatles Shop; and 20 Forthlin Road, McCartney's former home, where the band wrote and rehearsed many of their early songs (the property is open to the public and features Beatles memorabilia and photos).
Also of interest to fans are John Lennon's childhood home at 251 Menlove Avenue, along with the Casbah Coffee Club in West Derby.
Albert Dock
One of Liverpool’s most aesthetically stunning attractions, Albert Dock should be right at the top of any visitor’s list. Not only is the Dock a World Heritage Site waterfront, it also houses the largest collection of Grade I listed buildings in the country.
"A place of history that combines Liverpools mighty heritage with its present day remake as a cultural centre."
Pier Head
The Pier Head area of Liverpool includes the traditional trio of harbor buildings known as the Three Graces: the Port of Liverpool Building, the Cunard Building, and the Royal Liver Building.
It's also where you'll find the Titanic Memorial commemorating the "Heroes in the Engine Room" on the luxury liner that sank in 1912; the Queen Victoria Monument; and the Georgian Town Hall, built in 1754 with its lovely copper cupola crowned by a statue of Minerva.
Merseyside Maritime Museum
The Maritime Museum in Liverpool is home to numerous fascinating exhibitions about the many thousands of emigrants who left Britain via the Mersey for North America between 1830 and 1930.
The museum also boasts an impressive collection of artifacts related to seafaring in Liverpool, stretching back in time as far as its establishment as a fishing port in the 13th century.
Liverpool's Cathedral
The Catholic Liverpool Metropolitan Cathedral reflects the high proportion of Liverpudlians of Irish origin living in the city.
Around its cylindrical tower is a huge "tent," 200 feet in diameter, rising sharply to a funnel-shaped drum, 270 feet high, the whole structure looking like a huge lantern rising above the city.
