Manchester: Attractions and more...
Manchester is largely industrial in nature and a busy metropolis, but many architectural wonders are found tucked away in the corners of this busy street. Castlefield is the site of the original settlement inhabited by Romans almost 2000 years ago. The grand Manchester Town Hall is painted with murals depicting the development of the city since the Roman era. The Manchester Art Gallery is home to several distinguished art collections and also pieces in porcelain, silver and other metals.
Manchester’s multi-cultural spirit is very evident. Curry Mile is a long street lined with curry restaurants and shops selling Indian fare. The Chinatown also has signs in both English and Chinese and contains most of the Oriental restaurants of the city, along with shops selling Chinese goods. The Village is home to the oldest gay community in Europe and also hosts the Pride Festival, attended by the gay population of UK.
