Liverpool is an amazing city! It’s perfect for kids, world-schoolers and families visiting for staycations. There is loads to do in the city centre; over six public museums (free entry) and a large number of privately owned ones too; huge parks including Sefton Park (234 acres) with its Palm House and lush array of tropical plants; don’t forget to visit Church street with its colourful umbrellas, all of your shopping needs can be met in Liverpool One; Anthony Gormley’s iron statues look out over the sea to New Brighton, of course, there’s Penny Lane snd the Beatles Statues and the rambling cobbled streets in the RopeWalks; the bombed-out church has regular craft markets, visit the dock areas and stand in awe at their size and you can walk, cycle or blade all the way from the amazing Pier Head over to Otterspool near Speke.
