Introduction
Liverpool is a fantastic port city, with rich musical heritage and sporting prowess. Liverpool is famous for a number of reasons such as for being the home city of ‘The Beatles’; being home to two of the most famous teams in English football being Liverpool FC and Everton FC as well as being home of The Grand National, the most famous horserace in the world. Oh and did we mention Liverpool is the only city to boast two Cathedrals.
The Docks
This is a city in which boasts a number of tourist attractions, great bars and restaurants that will keep you busy for a fun packed weekend away with your friend or family. The advantage of the city is that the city centre is relatively small which allows you to easily walk around the centre without the need for endless taxi rides.
