LIVERPOOL

If you want to visit Britain but you don’t want to go to

London, you can fly to John Lennon Airport in Liverpool
in the northwest of England. Liverpool was the home
of the 60s pop group, The Beatles, and was once a huge
port. If you are a Beatles fan, you’ll love ‘The Beatles
Story’ – an exhibition at ‘Albert Dock’, a modernised
part of the old port, now full of shops and cafés. You can
read about the lives of The Beatles, all of whom were
born in Liverpool and became famous around the world.
If you like football, you’ll want to visit Anfield, the home of Liverpool Football Club.

You can go for a tour around the football grounds and walk out through the players’
exit to feel the excitement of playing a match there. You can also see the dressing
rooms, sit in the manager’s chair and learn about the team’s history.
Liverpool is a football-crazy city – one of the team’s managers, Bill Shankly, once
said, ‘Some people believe football is a matter of life and death, but I think it’s much,
much more important than that.’
Liverpool is also a UNESCO World Heritage Site because it played an important part
in Britain’s history.
