As European centre of culture in 2008 Liverpool has a history of being one of the UK’s most energetic Cities with a huge choice when it comes to shopping and brilliant restaurants. Located in the very heart of Liverpool is Liverpools largest shopping centre, St John’s which is wonderful for those individuals looking for a great shopping sensation. There is also a new huge shopping area the Met Quarter and Liverpool one which is filled to brimming with everything you could want on a buying expedition.

Manchester restaurants are some of the best in the country, and when it comes to retail therapy you might well be brushing elbows with WAG’s in the designer stores of New Cathedral Street and Exchange Square. The choice of Manchester restaurants is brilliant with fantastic Italian Restaurants, Chinese restaurants, Indian Restaurants, Tai Restaurants and all restaurants in between. The huge Traford Centre is a brilliant place to shop with over 280 shops, 38 restaurants, huge cinema and excellent leisure resources.

There are several flights in and out of Liverpool and Manchester Area making the trip a quick and simple destination to get to and enjoy. Although personally I just hope that the plane has the correct underwater escape lighting.

If you love retail therapy it is of benefit taking a trip to these brilliant cities as they will provide you with a fantastic time out in cities that provide for the choosey shopper. The architecture and history of Liverpool and Manchester is stimulating with many fascinating facts to be discovered in particular museums and historical tours.
