City guide
Manchester
Manchester wears its industrial past on its sleeve — Victorian mills and warehouses now hold indie galleries, bars and one of England's best live music scenes — and carries itself as the confident capital of the North. It's a city for football, gigs and pints as much as culture, friendly and unpretentious rather than polished, with the Northern Quarter's street art and vintage shops setting the tone.
