Cheapest flights to Manchester
Few cities in the world have embraced social change so heartily as Manchester. From engine of the Industrial Revolution to test-bed of contemporary urban design, the city has no realistic provincial English rival. Its domestic dominance expresses itself in various ways, most swaggeringly in the success of Manchester United, the richest football club in Britain, but also in a thriving music and cultural scene that has given birth to world-beaters as diverse as the Hallé Orchestra and Oasis. Moreover, the city's concert halls, theatres, clubs and café society are boosted by England's largest student population and a blossoming gay community whose spending-power has created a pioneering Gay Village. For inspiration, Manchester's planners look to Barcelona - another revitalized industrial powerhouse - and, like Barcelona, the promise of a major sports event has powered much of the recent urban regeneration. The city didn't get the Olympics, though it wasn't for the want of trying, but instead landed the 2002 Commonwealth Games.
If Manchester can be said to have a centre, it's St Peter's Square and the cluster of buildings focused on it. South of here, the former Central Station now functions as the G-Mex exhibition centre, with the Hallé orchestra's home, Bridgewater Hall, opposite; Chinatown (Britain's largest) and the Gay Village are just a short walk to the east; while to the northeast, the revamped Piccadilly Gardens provides access to the so-called Northern Quarter, the funkiest of the regenerated inner-city areas. To the southwest is the Castlefield district, site of the Museum of Science and Industry .
