THE CITY #THECITY#

Manchester dates from Roman times, as domany other European cities. Subsequentlythe city led a fairly anonymous existenceuntil the 18th century when the IndustrialRevolution began to take off. Manchestersoon became the world’s textile centre andwas a city where fabulous riches weremixed with extreme poverty. Many of theVictorian buildings and brick textilefactories were architectural masterpieces,whereas the worker’s tenements were thepoorer.

The English textile industry began to sufferfrom problems as far back as the 1920’s,and was wiped out in the 1970’s. Althoughmore than two million people live inGreater Manchester, the city centre hasbeen virtually abandoned.

In the last decade this has started tochange at a rapid pace. In the summer of1996, the IRA exploded a large bomb incentral Manchester. Using the insurancemoney and Government grants, a giganticbuilding project was started, which is stillin progress and the beautiful old buildingsare being renovated one by one.

In parallel with this, young creative and/orrich “Mancunians” have begun to look forflats in town. The Northern Quarter suburbhas become as hip as Hoxton or Soho inLondon, and in Castlefield in the south,luxurious flats have sprung up along thecanals.

These days Manchester is a lively, cultured

city which compares well with otherinternational cities. Wherever you areyou’ll find the historical waterways. TheCastlefield district has the first man-madewaterway. the Bridgewater Canal. A tripalong the Manchester Ship Canal, whichruns from Salford Quays to Liverpool, isvery nice and displays locks and bridgesthat have been unchanged for 100 years.

Greater Manchester is made up of tenborough towns, from the East Lancashiresteam railway in Bury to the pier andrugby league side of Wigan. Each districtmakes up the city’s unique identity. Witheasy reach to the Peak District you’ll alsoexperience breathtaking countryside.

Famous for its music connections; TheHollies, The Bee Gees, New Order, Oasis,Simply Red, Badly Drawn Boy and manymany more, Manchester’s popular musicscene won’t leave anyone disappointed.One of the City’s biggest music event is ’InThe City’, a five-day expo that attractsover 500 unsigned acts. In The City helpedlaunch both Radiohead and Coldplay.

There may be bitter rivalry, but the lovefor the game unite Manchester’s footballfans. There is Manchester United,Manchester City, as well as Bolton andWigan. All teams provide the region withthe highest quality football entertainment.Take a tour of Old Trafford or The City ofManchester Stadium, or get hold of a ticketand watch one of the games live - youwon’t regret it. The excitement isexhilirating, both in the stadium as well asthe whole city.
