The Beatles' Liverpool
The Beatles' Liverpool
See
Completed in 1978, Liverpool Cathedral is a place of superlatives – it is Britain’s biggest church and the biggest Anglican cathedral in the world. It also has what’s probably the world’s largest operational organ, and the third-largest bell in the world (St James’ Mount; admission £5).
Tate Liverpool is regarded as the home of modern art in the north of England. The gallery features a substantial checklist of 20thcentury artists, as well as touring exhibitions from London’s Tate Modern (Albert Dock; admission free).
The Beatles Story museum doesn’t delve too deeply into the darker times of the Fab Four. However, there is plenty of memorabilia, including George Harrison’s first – and very flimsy – guitar, worth half a million pounds (Albert Dock; admission £16).
Liverpool War Museum occupies the site of a secret WWII command centre – a building designed to be gas- and bomb-proof. Virtually everything was left intact at the end of the war, including the map room (1 Rumford St; admission £6).
Though Evertonians will disagree, arguably no institution represents the Mersey spirit more than Liverpool FC. The club offers tours of its stadium and a museum showcasing silverware and memorabilia (Anfield Rd; museum and tours £15).
Eat and drink
One of the city’s most popular venues with the student population,Hannah’s Bar is a Liverpool institution. There’s a distinct New York lounge bar vibe at work here, and a wealth of live music, DJ and open-mic nights on weekly (2 Leece St; beers from £2.50).
The Italian Club is a family-run, southern Italian restaurant serving exemplary pizzas and pastas in a rustic, wood-panelled dining room. There are also salads and paninis to take away (85 Bold St; take-away paninis from £5).
Conceived by the shipwrights who designed the ocean liner Lusitania,Philharmonic is one of the most beautiful bars in all of England. The interior is a symphony of etched and stained glass, wrought iron, mosaics and ceramic tiling. The marble men’s toilets are the only listed lavatories in the UK (36 Hope St; lunch mains from £5).
Liverpool’s first Argentinian restaurant, Meet Argentinian is a temple to grilled beef cuts the size of a frisbee. Traditional Argentinian stews and sausages also make an appearance (50 Brunswick St; steaks from £10).
London Carriage Works counts among Liverpool’s foremost gastronomic destinations, mixing global and British influences in a smart dining room. Dishes come with beer and wine recommendations (40 Hope St; mains from £11).

Great Britain is one of my favourite countries smile One of the most important part of British history is its music. Lots of great musicians were born there. The greatest music groups were also known as Britih groups. For example, Depeche Mode, Queen, The Beatles etc. I read this article with great pleasure. smile
