The 5 Best Things to Do in Merseyside

Airbnb rates Merseyside town as one of the best seaside places in England to book a weekend getaway. While it’s a top destination for travellers, it looks to be getting the hype it deserves as it sits on the sixth spot of the UK’s best seaside areas.

The same is true of the Albert Dock’s stores, which were utilised to stock exotic merchandise from across the British Empire, and Southport’s affluent neighbourhood, credited with inspiring Napoleon III to design Paris’ boulevards.

There are illustrious links golf clubs such as Royal Birkdale, model communities like Port Sunlight, and awe-inspiring seaside vistas.

Below we discuss the top 5 best things to do in Merseyside:

1. Explore the Museum of Liverpool

Located on Mann Island, the museum of Liverpool was opened in July 2011. Using artefacts and items from the vast collections of National Liverpool, this state-of-the-art museum illuminates the city’s history as well as its inhabitants.

Featuring three floors, with each one having its own distinctive galleries. Thrее gаllеrіеѕ—Grеаt Port Gallery, Global City Gallery, and Lіttlе Lіvеrрооl Gаllеrу—аѕ well аѕ the ѕtоrе аnd саfé аrе lосаtеd оn thе grоund flооr.

2. Aintree Racecourse

Aintree is home to the most famous horse race in the world, with over 600 million audiences at every tournament. The three-day Grand National meeting is a genuinely historical event, and each morning is no exception.

In addition, Aintree hosts an extra six racing days, featuring family holidays, joyous Xmas celebrations, and acoustic nights, when it’s not hosting the most prestigious race in existence in April.

 

3. Explore Knowsley Safari Park

There are plenty of things to see here at the Knowsley Safari Park, including over 700 foreign animals and amusement rides.

Some examples of animals on sight are giraffes, lions, zebra, and elephants. There is also a part of the Safari Park after you drive around. Here, you can find smaller creatures, such as sea lions and a bat house, and partake in a woodland walk for fun.

However, if you would like to engage in fairground rides, you need to buy a wristband or tickets. There are a variety of rides available, including a pirate ship, dodgems, honey pots, and much more.

 

4. Calderstones Park

Calderstones Park is a 126-acres public park in Merseyside, UK. There is something for everyone, including a playground where you can have fun with the kids, a botanical garden, and a Coach House Gallery.
