Liverpool - A City of Culture and Excitement

Liverpool is a great modern northern city with very lively and friendly people, and providing you don’t hail from Manchester (the two towns share a fierce rivalry, particularly in football and music) you will find many lively scousers who are very chatty and happy to talk.

Liverpudlians - or scousers - have a very distinctive accent that sets them apart from the rest of the UK. They are very proud of their city and love their football (the city is home to Everton and Liverpool, who are two of England’s biggest clubs). If you’re around on a Saturday be sure to pop along to a match where you’ll be treated to a great day out.

Liverpool can be very awkward to drive in, though parking isn’t a problem. If you’re thinking about hiring a car make sure you are a pretty confident driver. Some of the roads are very busy and not particularly well laid out. The city has an airport which if you are flying in would usually be the place to pick up a hire car.

There are lots of hotels and some of the most popular places to visit are Beatles themed, as the famous British band from the 60s hailed from the city. The Cavern pub is one of the most famous pubs in Britain, where the Beatles played in their early years.

While the city has a somewhat undeserved reputation for crime and the British police are pretty quick to react to trouble there are a few areas to avoid. Be sure make a mental note of them before setting out around the city.

Liverpool St. George’s Hall

When in Liverpool, securing a car hire will allow you to see the sites at your own pace and will also afford you a convenient way to visit London. Great deals can be had when you research options online.

Liverpool is famous as the birth place of the 1950’s rock group, the Beatles. While this is an interesting attraction the city has to offer, and they even have guided Beatles tours, there is a more historical place to visit that you do not want to miss.

St. George’s Hall is situated in Liverpool’s center on Lime street. The building took ten years to build and was finally opened in 1854. It was intended as a place for concerts and also meant to house the city’s law courts but the architecture and prominence of the structure quickly turned it into a landmark.

Besides the astounding architecture of the building replete with huge chandlers and enormous marble pillars, the building is also known for its association with several famous characters. Charles Dickens was known to read his prose here and the famous Florence Maybrick murder trial also took place here. The trial was a high profile one due to the social stature of Florence and her husband James.

A tour of the building includes a visit to the prisoner holding cells and then a trip upstairs to see the Georgian style courtroom. The judge’s car, wig and original dock are all on display.

The grand concert hall is the most magnificient part of the guided tour. The glamorous tiled floors and original organs create a trip back in time for any visitor to the hall.

Just Say No to Buses

If you’re planning a trip to Liverpool you are probably already making a list of places to visit. Before you get your mind set on shopping destinations, entertainment spots, and dance clubs, take a minute to think about the interesting things you can learn on your trip. Soak up the culture while in Liverpool and enrich yourself with the history. Your first stop should be a car hire so that you can make it to all the places you want to see on your own time. There should be a car hire location at or near the airport where you land. After you get settled in at your hotel you’ll want to check out the Pier Head which is located on the water front at the center of Liverpool.

There are three landmarks in Pier Head which are known as The Three Graces. Constructed starting in nineteen o’ three, Port of Liverpool Building was the first of The Three Graces to be erected. Royal Liverpool Building is the second which was built from the year nineteen o’ eight to nineteen eleven. Topped with statues of the legendary Liver Bird creature, two clock towers make this landmark an amazing sight. The last of The Three Graces was built in nineteen fourteen in Italian Renaissance and Greek Revival style. It was once the main location for the Cunard Line shipping company, therefore it’s name, the Cunard Building fits well. With a car hire you are free to see these century old buildings on your own without being surrounded by other tourists or having to sit on a crowded bus that is on a strict timing schedule. Take your time to explore this area. Many memorials can be seen as well, The Titanic Memorial, the Merchant Navy War Memorial, the Cunard War Memorial, and the Alfred Lewis Jones Memorial among others. You’ll be glad you rented from a car hire while you are frequenting the many historical spots in Pier Head.
