7 things I love about Liverpool
Liverpool is a city I really do love. It is full of so much culture and so much to do. When Ben was about 12 I took him there for a few days and really fell in love with the place. Here I thought I would share with you 7 things I love about Liverpool so you may consider visiting too.
Free Museums
Liverpool has a few free museums that really help you to explore the history of the city. I loved the world museum with everything from Egyptian relics to the animal kingdom, it was amazing. I do love when places have free museum as I grew up in a low income household but still got to experience museums and I love that youngsters now can too.
Liverpool One
I love the whole of Liverpool One. So many shops and such a great area for dining at the top. We went to Las Iguanas there and it was beautiful. Ben, of course, spent lots of my money in the shops, but that is what kids do, isn’t it? There are shops for everything and you could literally spend a full day there shopping if that is your thing. I love to shop and browse the shops even if I don’t buy anything!
The Beatles
One thing I love about Liverpool is all the history around The Beatles. One of the most amazing bands of all time, and there is so much to see from their home town. I would definitely recommend The Beatles story. If you don’t want to spend any money, then how about a photo with the statues? There is one just outside the British Music Experience.
The Football
I love that Liverpool has two amazing football teams and whilst that, of course, involves rivalry it also means lots of fun. This is something I love about the area that they can be rivals but be friends too and families can be mixed in who they support and that is ok. We visited Anfield which was amazing too.
Recently we went to a game at the brand new Hill Dickinson Stadium, home of Everton FC and well, what can I say, it was amazing. Even if you are a Liverpool FC fan I think going to this brand new stadium would be a lovely experience. That is one thing I love about Liverpool, that people can be friends or even family with different teams, and it is ok (on the whole!).
Photo Opportunities
There are so many places you can take amazing photos in Liverpool. Instagram has so many great pictures of all there is to see. From the football stadiums to the Titanic Hotel, you are sure to find something amazing.
The Accent
I absolutely love the Liverpool accent. I know it isn’t for everyone, but I love it. It truly is something I love about Liverpool and enjoyed when I visited. Strange, I know! Is it an accent you love? It is most definitely one of the main things I love about Liverpool.
Cilla Black
Did you grow up watching Blind Date? I loved it and can’t believe that there is an amazing statue of Cilla in Liverpool. Maybe that is the origin of my love for the accent, I don’t know, but wow, what a superstar, don’t you think?
