My Journey in UK – Part 7

Hello Manchester, I'm coming. I have spent 2 days at Manchester and actually this city is very good for modern activities like shopping, entertainment, sports. There are many places to doing those activities, so if you wanna see ancient places this place isn't recommended. But the most important thing to do in here is see and come inside Manchester United Stadium, the biggest football stadium in UK. I had new experience that stayed 1 night at the youth hostel, a cheap hotel for backpacker purpose and also share room with other people, also known as bed and breakfast. For your information, the transportation in here is good. You can use tram, train, or bus to reach all places. That was easier than Glasgow but a little bit harder than London. There are list of modern places that you must visit in Manchester (based on my listing :p):

1. Manchester United ,Theater of Dream, stadium, I took stadium and museum tour and that was very great

2. Old Trafford's Town Hall, you can just take picture while pass it before stadium

3. All these places that near with St Peter's Square Tram station : Manchester Central Library, Town Hall, The Bridgewater Hall, Gmex Centre, Manchester International CConvention Centre and Manchester Art Galleries

4. Urbis (Modern Museum) and Manchester Cathedral are near with Victoria station

5. The Museum of Science and Industry in Manchester

6. Manchester City Stadium, It's also great for me because it's just only me that took the tour so it's like a private tour :p

7. Trafford Centre, It's very very big shopping mall that I've ever seen before

8. The lorry and Imperial War Museum, I missed all of these

The another thing was I found Mosque in Manchester and finally I could pray to my GOD in Mosque at first time for I've been in UK. And don't forget to be carefully in Manchester, because there is the gay village near with chorlton bus/coach station :).
