Is there a lake or a nice park in the middle of the Arena-airport distance?
Salford Quays is nice for a walk about , the Lowry and imperial war museum are down there , copthorne have a hotel on the quay , if you decide to stay in the city centre the arena is walkable as it's just on the edge.
The Imperial War Museum near Manchester is probably the worst museum I've ever been to (IMHO), a vast gloomy space with a few bits of tat (including a Trabant) lying about.
Hi chaps, i am planning a trip to Manchester soon. As far as i read there is no train or no underground train? Any idea how will i get to the centre from the airport?
Come on locals!
As above trams are good in the centre although it is not that big a place. We always do the Museum of Science & Industry which tells a good interactive story of Manchesters growth.
Thanks for your replies chaps. SOunds like Picadilly station is the central station?
A friend lives in Hale. Is that near the centre or at the airport? Where would you prefer to stay?
