Manchester is an exciting city filled with spots that are quickly putting it on the map for trendy restaurants, amazing attractions and even more great shops for you to try out. As one of the biggest cities in the North of England, Manchester is an exciting place to be no matter what reason you decide to visit.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The city has its own <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/en.wikipedia.org\/wiki\/Culture_of_Manchester\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">culture<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> with a lot of rich history and an atmosphere that\u2019s an eclectic mix of student life and metropolitan.

In this guide, we\u2019ll give you all the must-sees and dos in Manchester so that you can make the most of your time in the exciting English city.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Brief History of Manchester<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manchester etched its name in British history as it was born from the Industrial Revolution, and pioneered the UK\u2019s progress on a global scale. Renowned as the leading producer of cotton and textiles, it was the world&#8217;s first industrialized urban center. In 1761, Manchester launched the UK&#8217;s first working canal, while the world&#8217;s first railway line emerged in Manchester in 1830. Manchester embodies a remarkable blend of historical significance and cutting-edge innovation.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Why Are There Worker Bees Everywhere?<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you\u2019re walking around Manchester, you may come across the worker bee emblem on dustbins, the sides of buildings, or benches. The symbol of the worker bee bears great significance in Manchester. The emblem has represented Manchester for over 250 years as a reminder of the hard work and dedication to innovation the residents of the city have displayed throughout history.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Watch this video to learn more:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LA7TGW11gzQ?si=3bp6eV4r_qKkEGHG\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Restaurants, Bars, and Cafes<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Let\u2019s kick off with one of the most up-and-coming scenes in Manchester &#8211; the food scene. With the city becoming a popular spot for trendy restaurants, street food, bars, and hip coffee shops, there are a few places in Manchester you have to visit to give you a good idea of what the Manchester food scene is all about.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re in the area, you need to pay a visit to the very popular Pollen Bakery. They are most famous for the cruffin, which is a delightful creation, marrying the flakiness of a croissant with the indulgence of a muffin, filled with delectable curd or cr\u00e8me patissi\u00e8re.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another thing that Manchester is developing its name in is its street food reputation. We all know how great a pizza, burger or toastie tastes when you\u2019re just craving those savory sensations. If you are a fan of Italian food, then you have to take a turn past Nell&#8217;s New York Pizza &amp; Bar. The restaurant is so much more than your neighborhood pizza joint, instead, it\u2019s a hub of innovation when it comes to everyone\u2019s favorite cheesy meal.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Watch this video to get a glimpse:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/A_bcYOinr7U?si=mpe43AYb-A0-U1iz\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Shopping Hubs<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Manchester is certainly the place to be when you\u2019re in need of a little retail therapy. Shopping is one of the things that the city is famous for, and it certainly does not disappoint when it comes to the variety of fashion available from designer outlets. When you\u2019re in the city, take the opportunity to explore the shopping meccas of Manchester Arndale, The Trafford Centre, Exchange Square, and Market Street, showcasing a plethora of renowned department stores including John Lewis, Selfridges, House of Fraser, and M&amp;S.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For a touch of exclusivity, venture to King Street, Spinningfields, and New Cathedral Street, which are homes to chic designer boutiques. If you prefer the charm of one-of-a-kind independents and handmade treasures, Manchester&#8217;s creative hub, The Northern Quarter, has loads of vintage shops, record stores, and a lively mix of cafes, bars, and restaurants.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re on the hunt for amazing bargains and designer labels, Cheshire Oaks Designer Outlet has over 145 boutiques in a sprawling quarter-million-square-foot retail space. And don&#8217;t forget Manchester&#8217;s thriving Jewellery Quarter, where you&#8217;ll discover everything from exquisite timepieces to vintage gems and contemporary jewelry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Watch this video to learn more:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LIlwCwHmHGs?si=pPDlvw-AvPYLeQlh\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A Night On The Town<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Having a night out in Manchester is an incredible experience. Drinks will certainly cost you a lot less than if you were <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/offmetro.com\/world\/30529\/10-things-you-should-do-in-london-this-year\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">out and about in London<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">. It\u2019s also ideal as most of the places to go are close together, meaning you can walk around if you fancy a bit of a bar hop. Where you end up entirely depends on your preferences and what sort of activity you want to get up to.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the more unique experiences you can choose when on a night out in Manchester is a club called Impossible. The club has curated an immersive experience for guests to enjoy, entertaining you with an array of performances from professional dancers to world-class DJs. For a quieter evening in Manchester, consider catching a show at one of the theaters, grabbing dinner at one of the many restaurants beforehand.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Watch this video to learn more:<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"YouTube video player\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Sw6phrqb40A?si=9F1CWW0mNsCjzWf4\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Places to Stay<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is definitely no shortage of accommodation in Manchester, however, you may find that some spots are better than others. There are hotels and BnBs to suit any budget, however, for a truly fantastic time in the city, serviced apartments are certainly your best option. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.trustedstays.co.uk\/destinations\/manchester\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Serviced apartments<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> are self-catering, and give you a lot more freedom than hotel stays. You\u2019ll be able to come in and out of your apartment as much as you like, and your meal times are not determined by the Hotel\u2019s schedule. Apartments have all the comforts of home, with the added benefit of domestic chores being done for you.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Some of the best areas of Manchester to stay in are the City Centre, the Northern Quarter, Salford Quays, and Old Trafford. These places are close to everything whether you want to visit Manchester to explore its incredible food scene or shop til you drop. If you can get a serviced apartment in one of these areas, you\u2019ll be able to walk to most of the attractions the city has to offer.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Final Thoughts<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After reading this guide to Manchester, hopefully, your interest has been piqued and you\u2019re already looking at what you want to book and planning your itinerary for your time in the city.
