About Liverpool
As the home of the Beatles, Liverpool Football Club, and the Mersey Ferry, Liverpool has its share of cultural attractions, but it is the unique character of the people who live in this this northern city that make it such a special destination. The riverfront area and docks have been transformed from a run down wasteland into one of the most thriving chopping and entertainment areas in the region, and the extensive ongoing work to bring Liverpool out of its 1980s slump means that there is now more than ever to see when you visit.
In the city of Liverpool itself, there is a whole list of things that you will want to see, and do, whether you are a fan of the arts, shopping, or enjoying the night life. The Tate museum on the docks, which has an extensive collection of modern art by people such as Picasso and Antony Gormley.
The two cathedrals either end of Hope Street in the city centre represent the historic division of faith in the city as much as the presence of Liverpool and Everton FC across Stanley Park. The Cathedral of Christ the King at the bottom of the hill is a mammoth modern building that revolutionised church design around the world, while the Protestant cathedral is a huge Gothic styled building that is one of the most exceptional spaces in England.
Liverpool has always had a reputation for being a place where you can have a good time, and in the evening the bars and clubs in the city centre are always full. The Cavern Club made famous by the association with the Beatles and is a great live music venue. The modern club is a replica of the 1960s original, but manages to recreate the atmosphere perfectly.
Booking car hire in Liverpool gives you the freedom to explore the area outside the city where there are plenty of local sights to enjoy. Knowsley Safari Park just outside the city recreates the African Savannah and is home to elephants and lions. Formby Beach a few miles outside Liverpool is a popular place in summer and is home to a large colony of red squirrels.
