urban cluster

• Oltlingham, Ashton Anderson, Bolton, Bure, Oderheim, Rochdale, Sell, Stockport and Wigan.

manchester had developed a negative reputation from the industrial age. Things have changed dramatically over the past decade, and cities are now full of activity and excitement. The Irish Republican Army's bombing in 1996 and the real estate properties rebuilt in cities after the 2002 Commonwealth Games paid off, even if it took a day or two, or if you were going to use it as a base to explore North England and North Wales for longer.

The city is in northwest England, about the same distance as Liverpool and Leeds. Although it is already a very damp stereotype, Manchester's rainfall levels and days are actually below the UK average.

The Manchester people are indeed proud, as can be seen from a mosaic in the north

Manchester is a city where more and more people choose to settle, and what many see as a young, vibrant frontier city always happens. Many see their city as a rival to London, and despite its large population, there is no doubt that Birmingham is vying for the title of "second city". This hatred seems to be growing, at least on the scale of the population that adds up. If you compare the population of the Manchester area to the population of Birmingham and its surrounding towns and areas, Birmingham beats Manchester with an extra 100,000 or so. But if you look at the actual population of Birmingham, more than a million people, in terms of population, it's more than twice as large as Manchester, which has a population of about 450,000. But the Manchester people believe that population is only one aspect, and history and contributions to the world should be taken into account. "Made in Manchester" has gone beyond the city's boundaries (including nearby Salford and Old Trafford and other districts), and even beyond the greater Manchester region. It has experienced the impact of its products as a whole, in a wider region.

For years, many Londoners chose to move to Manchester, not all of them back to the north. Some come from overseas, no longer heading south, looking north for more reasonable cities. Manchester is also a friendly city. Northern people rarely communicate with each other and do not open up to strangers. But the difference between asking for directions in London and in Manchester is clear. Lately, locals seem more enthusiastic than ever and are willing to offer all help. Some outsiders may be very proud of the "non-British" part of the city, but it feels very similar to the Australians in their own country. Positive evaluation and praise continue to be a treatment of the local population, and have been in place in recent years, often.

The adjective related to Manchester is Manchester, or Manc. Native urban accent is more closely related to Liverpool's deep roots in North Wales than to neighboring cotton towns Lancaster and Strian.

Chinese arch in Manchester Chinatown

• Manchester's Chinatown is around George Street and Faulkner Street, and it was built in the late 1970s. Chinatown is not in the center of town, visiting the suburbs for many middle-age tourists, but at night, a place where many young locals gather. You'll find that people on the streets of the local Chinatown are mainly speaking Chinese or Chinese dialect, and even sign in Chinese. Manchester is home to many Chinese restaurants and a commercial concentration of Chinese goods. At night, the flashing neon lights added to the beauty of Chinatown. Chinese restaurants are a good place to eat. Since most of the ingredients are imported from China, the chef is mostly from China, and the menu is very oriental. There are also many Chinese stores that sell newspapers, magazines, CDs and traditional Chinese medicines. There are many Chinese in the area, and Manchester's Chinatown is arguably Britain's Chinatown.

• The Village, locally referred to as Gay Village (or Gay Village); It is located near the canal and by the street of the cotton warehouse. It is the oldest typical gay community in Europe and home to a diverse gender. Many of Manchester's famous bars and clubs can be found here. Local gay parties are also held occasionally, while heterosexual tourists can participate. Every July and August, a Pride Day celebration of the large gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender culture will be held. If you're curious or interested in the event, you might as well go and feel the most varied love in the area, where people are friendly and enthusiastic.

When choosing a local restaurant, it is best to choose the oldest and most reputable restaurant, especially near Canal Street. These restaurants have good service staff, excellent food and an international environment; It's not just a restaurant, it's like a local bar or restaurant. Local art works are also good.

• The Curry Mile, an 800-meter-long street of food, is home to many restaurants, shops and jewelry shops.

• If you have more time, or want to buy some stylish clothes, go to Didsbury to give it a try. For fashion destinations across the UK's major cities, "The village" (don't be confused with the Gay Village in the city center) can be reached by taxi or bus, although it is a little far from East Didsbury station. On Saturday nights, Didsbury has a nice upscale restaurant and many pubs and bars to visit. The Manchester metropolitan area is not only a key development city, but also a light rail station and a high speed rail line through the north and south of the UK, which has led to rising prices.

History of Manchester

• Kaiserfield, a settlement of the Roman people, was built more than two meters above the perimeter wall before the 16th century, once the center of the Manchester Canal Junction, with unique historical significance. The nearby Science and Industry Museum is the world's first passenger train station and the first British-designated urban heritage. It is shocking to see how Caserfield still retains its decrepit elevated railways, rusted iron bridges and giant warehouses. Until the 1980s, it was converted into the current urban heritage park. The Museum of Science and Industry is a hallmark of Caserfield, which has intact steam engines and spinning machines, as well as a 1830s train station. The rebuilt Roman fortress is worth a trip.

• Manchester University, on Oxford Road; Besides the earliest discovery of Rutherford scattering atoms, this is also the first computer built in Britain and the first radio astronomy; This is the first university to find vanadium separation. The new architecture-style tourist center stands in sharp contrast to the surrounding ancient Manchester Museum.

• Manchester Cathedral, Millennium Block. For the largest church in the country, it has fine-grained art (Lincoln College) and church stone screens. The newly built tourist center allows visitors to consult more about the cathedral. Nearby are Harvey Nichols, Urbis and Victoria Station.

Manchester City Hall

• Manchester City Hall, Albert Square. It is the seat of the city council, which has a long history and continues to play an important role in the life of the city. Built in Victorian times, it was a new Gothic, completed in 1877. In 1938, the city hall expanded. On February 25, 1952, Manchester Town Hall became the first class protected building in the UK. The remarkable architectural appearance, dominated by a clock tower 285 feet (87 meters) high, is the Greater Abel, the Manchester version of London's Big Ben clock. The town hall is a charming New Gothic Victorian building, completed in 1877. The designer Alfred Waterhouse was one of the most accomplished architects of the time. Visitors can visit art and historical treasures from the Hall and the Statue Hall. Then come upstairs and admire the vaulted ceiling. The bust and statue, located at the entrance and at the museum, depicts influential local figures, including physicist James Prescott Joule and chemist John Dalton. In the Hall, you'll see Ford Maddox Brown murals, a series of 12 paintings based on the Victorian ideal of Manchester. The murals paint a history of science, education, trade and the textile industry and the foundations laid by the Romans for the city. The glass skylights reveal the names of mayors and city council presidents since 1838. The bee pattern mosaic on the floor of the Hall, the bee symbol of labor and industry, and the pattern of the Manchester Shield.

• The John Railanz Library, Dingsgate; One of the University of Manchester's four major libraries, a Victorian Gothic library. A classic Victorian Gothic building, his wife, a cotton-spinning master, memorialized her late husband, John Railanz. It is a fine and elegant Victorian house with a tourist center, a collection dominated by religious, cultural and artistic, scientific books, and many ancient books. The library's early printed collections include the Gutenberg Bible (Gutenberg Bible), a number of Caxton-printed books and manuscripts from 2,000 BC.

• The St. Anne's Church is located on one side of St. Ann's Square, far from the noise of the city, and offers a quiet and quiet holy site. The attraction is often popular with tourists and is popular for weddings on Saturday.

Manchester is one of Britain's most fully stocked shopping districts, with most downtown shops within reasonable walking distance, up to 15 minutes, and most subway lines. Even in the best shops, you get a friendly reception, but many believe this is not the case in the capital. The recently relaunched Arndale Centre, a central shopping district in the 1970s, housed 280 merchants in just 185,000 square meters of retail space, winning the title of Europe's largest central shopping center and the world's largest future merchant. The area retains its 1970s cement style and some infamous yellow tiles, as the city's planning was so bad. The center connects Max & Spencer and Selfridge Department Stores near the Trade Place by Skybridge. Some regional appearances are still to be updated, but modernization after the 1996 bombings was a considerable advance, except that the grand appearance of the Trafford Center at first glance felt modern. The center is busy on weekends, and unlike Trafford, there are few places to sit. If you do need to sit down, there are benches around the stairs near the low floor of the market.

There is no doubt that the four universities in Greater Manchester are still well known throughout the UK, and that Manchester itself claims to be the most popular city for students in the UK. Manchester University is better educated than any other UK university, while Met also offers a variety of educational courses. More and more language schools are open today, providing more learning space and learning environment than London.

Salford Pier

Manchester has many temporary jobs to find the hospitality industry. Reports have suggested that overseas applicants with the relevant qualifications may be interested in recent years because of a shortage of teachers (though not comparable to London). Manchester, the country's eight cities, is the first choice for jobs. After London, Manchester offers the most jobs.

If you get a job license in the UK, it's easy to find a job here. In recent years, it has attracted many foreigners to work, but according to local media reports, because of the depreciation of the pound and the economic recession, it is considered that the work is not guaranteed and stable. However, the local cities developed late and many construction industries are looking for people.

Manchester is also home to many important financial and media centers, such as the BBC headquarters at Salford Pier and the headquarters of ITV Granada. More than that, the BBC has moved some of its programming, including breakfast and today's competition, to British Media City, a campus in the greater Manchester region.

Because of the local football match, the retail industry around the stadium has been driven, and it is possible to seek employment from retail employers.

Since about 1993, investment in pubs, clubs and clubs, together with support from local organizations, has led to significant economic growth in Manchester at night. The city center has more than 500 licensed entertainment venues that can accommodate more than 250,000 visitors, with 110,000-130,000 typical weekend nights.

Canal Street has a gay community that has opened Britain's first gay supermarket with the committee's investment in grass-roots facilities. New bars and clubs are opening up in the area. Since 1991, there has been a popular celebration every August. That's where the TV series Queer as Folk was shot.

According to the local media, there are many problems related to the poor quality of the tourists, and there are many disputes.
