If you want something a little off the beaten track, a must
see is the stunning John Ryland’s Library. Regarded as one of the most beautiful
libraries in the world, it doesn’t disappoint. It’s Gothic style architecture –
inside and out – transforms you to a different world. There are great
exhibitions to see alongside medieval illuminated manuscripts dating to the
1400’s. It may not be the obvious destination in the city, but it is certainly
the most impressive – an amazing place to learn, visit and study in!
Millions of people head to the Trafford Centre each year but
don’t realise Chill Factore is literally just round the corner. You can ski and
snowboard on the UK’s longest indoor slope. You can skydive indoors next door
at Airkix – something a little different. But if chilling is what you’re after,
check out Heaton Park – there is an historic hall, a farm and animal centre, a
boating lake and tram museum to. And on those rare sunny days, check out St.
Johns gardens – just off Lower Byrom St, this little known green oasis is right
in the heart of the city to be enjoyed! Take a picnic!
Wherever you are in the city, you will see the rolling hills
of the Pennines on the horizon. Never forget that the Peak District is
literally on your door step – a short car or train journey – will take you to
some of the most beautiful, idyllic countryside the UK has to offer!
