Overview

Enjoy everything that each of the wonderfully varied 76 cities in the UK has to offer with this delightful guide on how to make the most of day trips and weekend stays up and down the country. From the smallest (by population), the charming Welsh city of St Davids, to the largest, the multicultural metropolis that is Birmingham in the Midlands, and every fantastic city in between, Bright Lights, Big Cities will show you the very best places to eat, places to stay, cultural gems such as museums, architecture, theatre and cinema, historic sights, parks and green spaces, places the kids will love, and sports venues, and much more. All rounded off with insightful information on that city’s history and just what makes it special, along with gorgeous photography. With Bright Lights, Big Cities you can make it your mission to tick off every city on the list, and the book will pay particular attention on how to get to and around each city by public transport, walking or cycling, so you can feel happy leaving your car at home. The delights of urban metropolises are plentiful in our country so why travel further to treat yourself to a fun little city break? Whether you have just an afternoon to visit your nearest city, or fancy a full weekend away at the other end of the country, Bright Lights, Big Cities will show you what really shouldn’t be missed, especially those quirky, ‘off the beaten track’ things to do that you might not have discovered otherwise.
