Manchester Travel Recommendations for 2024 (Updated in May)

The most beautiful library in the world

Name: John Rylands Library Located in the city center (Deangate St.) When you see the title of this post and you might feel “going to a library during travels?”, but thank you very much for clicking my post to read captions. I felt the exactly the same thing when I checked the recommended places list of Manchester. However, it’s worth to go there! It was supposed to use as a church but people started to use this place as a library. So, the building looks like a church. #manchester #library #church

Harry Potter filming location!

Visited John Ryland’s library in Manchester and found out that a few scenes from Harry Potter were filmed here! The library is beautifully preserved and also hosts seasonal exhibitions, it’s worth a visit if you are in Manchester. There are free buses which you can take there as it’s in the town area with lots of dining options around:)

Inspiration for Harry Porter’s Hogwarts?

The library is beautiful. It’s free to enter but do keep your voice down. We came here during a free Manchester city tour and was explained everything about the library. If you are Harry Porter’s fan, you can come here and imagine yourself in Hogwarts. The architecture of the library is beautiful. It was built in 1890. Do come and explore those small corner of reading area. Here you’ll find some of the rarest and most beautiful books in Britain including the oldest existing piece of the New Testament and a first edition of Shakespeare’s Sonnets. Overall, the Library is an impressive place well worth exploring. #manchester

Manchester City Etihad Stadium

When in Manchester, one attraction that you need to go to is the football stadium called Manchester City Etihad stadium. Manchester city football fans would be thrilled to visit this stadium as it is the homeground for the football team and many spectacular football matches had been held there. The moment you're at the stadium's carpark, you can't help but be in awe and feel the grandeur of the stadium. You see it all decked in Manchester City football team color, which is blue and you can see banners of their football players. The stadium is huge and you get to see their trophies on display too. It's a great place to visit, be it you're a football fan or not, I'm glad I paid a visit to Etihad stadium. #wecreate

Trip from India To Denmark to Manchester Uk

Manchester Airport

I recently travelled through the newly renovated terminal 2 at Manchester airport. This terminal only has international flights and lots of the airlines use bag drop counters to avoid long queues. The airport follows the typical route of going through duty free before arriving at the gate and it was interesting to hear that all announcements were made in multiple languages. The terminal is still very new and there are enough seats/refreshment areas #urbanexplorer

Convenient in transit at Manchester airport

Trip to Belfast

This was my first time ever travelling to UK. Enjoyed my trip alot, the food the history and the people I met were all great. I went to Belfast from Italy via Manchester. Manchester Airport was beautiful and it felt like I am back at my home. Arriving in Belfast just made my day. beautiful architecture and landscape with a little bit of rain made my day.

Manchester has the best food out there and the best scenery, it’s a top place to go once you realise what it’s a vibe and you can actually enjoy your time

Really fantastic hotel experience

It is an unforgettable experience in Manchester, since the hotel is so near to the train station and only 3mins. Not only we can walk to the city center and near the hotel a lot of cafe and restaurant. If you would like to go to travel in Manchester, Hilton is one of the best choice, it is convenient for city travel but also you can take the train to the near city like Liverpool and Leeds, really good!

Afternoon Tea at Cloud 23 Manchester

Highly recommend a trip to Cloud 23 in Manchester UK. We booked the Wellbeing Afternoon Tea on New Years Day and it was a great experience! Before going up to the restaurant we enjoyed 2 hours in the Hilton’s leisure facilities. The pool was great, perfect size for a good swim and not too deep. There was a good size jacuzzi too plus a sauna and steam room. The changing rooms were very basic and a little small but did the job. Towels, robes and slippers were included in our experience. After our spa visit, we made our way up in the dedicated elevator to the 23rd floor. As we stepped out the views were amazing! The staff showed us straight to our table and get us some drinks. Included in the package was unlimited tea/coffee or hot chocolate (and there was a great selection) a cocktail (again a great selection of both alcoholic and nonalcoholic options) and a beautiful selection of food, beautifully presented. The staff were so helpful throughout and the food was faultless! The experience cost us £45 each which was great value, especially as one cocktail alone in the restaurant is normal £17! Would highly recommend this little treat! #luxuryhotel #bucketlist #afternoontea #cloud23 #manchesterfood #2023travelwish #tripblazers #mytripvlog

Manchester, UK | Blue or Red?

For any football fan like me, the city of Manchester has always been a pilgrimage destination. It is the birthplace of British football and even more so, the birthplace of modern football. It was only when I arrived in Manchester that I realized there's more to this city than just football. Transportation: It's about a 50-minute flight directly from London to Manchester, and I've heard the train is also very convenient, but we chose the less troublesome plane due to our poor language skills. City Transport: We chose Uber for airport transfers. Taxis are really cheap, and you can get by with less than 200. Since we were visiting two stadiums and the attractions were quite scattered, we mostly traveled by taxi. Hotel: We booked the Hilton Manchester Deansgate Hotel. The location of the hotel is great, not too far from the University of Manchester and the stadiums. We stayed in Manchester for two days and one night. We arrived late at night and went straight to sleep, and early the next morning we took a taxi to the Etihad Stadium, the home ground of Manchester City. Both City and United offer timed entry tickets with guided tours, so make sure to buy your tickets and arrange your time in advance. We booked the first tour at 10:00, which lasted about an hour. The tour starts from the upper part of the stadium and goes inside, including the dressing room, interview area, press conference hall, and then into the stadium itself. You can even take a photo with AI Guardiola at City. We managed to buy jerseys of Haaland and the English internet sensation Kelly at City, which was satisfying. After visiting the Etihad, we went to the John Rylands Library. The photography there is truly amazing, and although it's not as big as the Trinity College Library, the photos turned out great. After leaving the library, we followed Manager Jiao and walked for 20 minutes to a popular restaurant, waited a long time to get a seat, and the taste was just so-so. In the afternoon, we went to Old Trafford, the home ground of Manchester United. There were noticeably more people outside the stadium than at City's ground, and even the fan shop had a queue. Since we were there, we had to buy a Casemiro jersey and then went on the stadium tour. The United stadium tour was very crowded, and they wouldn't let you fall behind or leave the group. It also lasted about an hour, and the guide was very detailed. Old Trafford really fits the style of a top club, even if their recent results have been disappointing. A football fan's day is not complete without visiting the two stadiums. We also strolled around the University of Manchester campus. The campus was quiet and gentle under the sunshine, making us fall in love with this city. Finally, I would like to ask you all, is the sky of Manchester blue or red?
