subject: The best Manchester hotspots to go and seen when you are out of the office [print this page] Manchester has a rich history of culture and development; particularly renowned for its music scene, as well as the gay community and acceptance. Even though it might appear that the city does not have the appeal of other larger metropolitan cities, there are many things to see there, as well as a thriving economy and some beautiful landscapes.
It is these attractions that have made Manchester a perfect location for a firm's offices, as they give workers something to do on their lunch hour or after work. In fact listed below are some of the main hotspots, created with the help of Office Space Finders:
1. The Whitworth Art Gallery: Costing nothing to enter, this gallery has a collection of over 55,000 items, as well as innovative and often controversial exhibits. A short while ago, I visited this particular gallery to view and study an exhibit called 'Kinderzimmer', created by Gregor Schneider, which was a simple, bare room in pitch black darkness, save for an eerily lit up room that solely contained a child's mattress that appeared dirty. A very unsettling but interesting experience.
2. Manchester Museum: Operated by Manchester University, it costs nothing to enter and was recently voted as one of the UK's most popular university museums. It contains about 6 million items for viewing, such as a selection of animal bones, models, items that date from a number of different eras, as well as dinosaur bones. Highly recommended to any person looking for something entertaining and interesting.
3. Manchester music venues, such as Manchester Academy: If you listen to a lot of new and upcoming bands, then Manchester Academy is an absolutely amazing place to visit. The music scene has played a vital role in making Manchester become the cultural epicentre that it has become and the Academy serves to strengthen this further. Boasting a varied roster of bands playing, such as Ash, Bloody Beetroots, Eels and Mark Ronson, the Academy always has an amazingly electric atmosphere.
4. Trafford Centre: Shoppers from across the UK are drawn to the Trafford Centre and the amazing shops within. This centre presents the perfect lunch-break for the average worker in serviced offices Manchester, according to Office Space Finders employees. Featuring a large-screen cinema, a contemporary food court and a host of high-street shops (and independent, smaller outlets), this centre is a veritable paradise for an avid shopper!
5. Beautiful surroundings: Whilst many might think that Manchester is an industrial and grey city, it is actually full of amazing greenery and some of the most widely-celebrated parks in the UK. Heaton Park stands out as one of the best in the region, with excellent attractions for children such as an animal centre, you can enjoy the fresh air and relax fully. With a bit of walking, you can also find a number of other parks, some of which offer fantastic facilities for sports.
Even though it can be even better exploring Manchester yourself and finding your own favourites, these five attractions can help you to have a great day.
