Tourist attractions at Liverpool, Uk
St. George's Hall
This Greco-Roman style building was built by wealthy merchants for the people of the city. Perhaps they had something to say to the public about social restriction in art, as the outside selection of classical murals were once thought of as quite shocking due to their display of female nudity. Make sure you add this, one of Western Europe's finest neo-classical buildings, to your sight-seeing list.
The Bluecoat
Galleries and a state-of-the-art Performance space put the Bluecoat on the map as a major landmark of contemporary culture. The oldest Grade 1 listed building in Liverpool's city centre hosts visual art, music literature, dance and live art, and nurtures new talent by providing studio spaces for artists within a unique creative community. Best of all, its free!
Travel around and view the other art galleries of the city with a Liverpool car hire.
Williamson's Tunnels
Created in the early 1800s by a Liverpool tobacco merchant, the purpose of this enormous labyrinth of tunnels under the Edge Hill area of Liverpool is yet unknown. You can contemplate the motive further at the Williamson's Tunnels Heritage Center.
