Manchester not by the sea
Manchester not by the sea
By chance, Manchester, the capital of the Industrial Revolution, became the first stop of my travels. One day is enough for a compact tour. The postcard I want to check in is the same one. Albert Square is undergoing renovations. If the renovation is completed, you can check in~
🗓Itinerary:
Attraction check-in route
Cathedral|Manchester Cathdral
The church is not big and has special bird decorations. A bird is a person's life.
Northern Quarter
It is a trendy neighborhood with various record stores, vintage, etc.
Gay Village|Gay Village
The decoration in that area basically has elements.
Turing Statue | Alan Turing Memorial
It's nearby, so you can check it out. I didn't know much about Turing's life before. It turns out that he was imprisoned because of his sexual orientation.
Chinatown|Chinatown of Manchester
You can go here to eat at night, so you don’t have to go shopping during the day.
Art Gallery|Manchester Art Gallery
There are mainly oil paintings inside, which is quite accessible. I saw many familiar stories. One of the most lively paintings is of Greek gods. There is a viewing device underneath the painting, which is quite interesting!
Library|The John Rylands Library
Be sure to check the opening hours before going. The appearance of the building itself is also very beautiful, you can take a look when passing by.
Central Library|Central Library
Located in the city center square, it looks like a white circular building. You can take a look inside when passing by.
✅Must experience:
gourmet food
🍲Dish recommendations:
Federal Cafe (there are three, just choose the one closest). We ordered French toast and Smashed
Avocado&poached eggs. The former is delicious and sweet, while the other is a bit salty and the bread is hard, so I don't like it very much. Overall it was not as amazing as expected.
Old place: M1 4HF
We ordered the Jie Jie Pork Ribs Pot, Xiao Long Bao, and Beef Brisket and Vegetable Fried Rice Noodles. The taste was average to above average. The interior decoration is average.
Comptoir:M3 3HF
It's Lebanese cuisine, the decoration is very beautiful, the food tastes good, and the texture is rich? I ordered mix grill (the lamb is a bit fishy but the other flavors are great), Garlic flatbread (similar to grilled naan), Mezza plater for one (three flavors of yogurt Ten salads, relatively refreshing).
All in all it was a very good trip!
