Liverpool: Tourism, shopping and much more!
The city of Liverpool (which is also a metropolitan borough) is located in Merseyside, England.
Driving from Liverpool to London will take you in a south-eastern direction for about 283 km. With its temperate maritime climate, Liverpool’s weather is quite like that of the British Isles: mild summers, cool winters, and an even annual rainfall.
One of the more interesting facts about Liverpool is that its population is younger than that of England as a whole (42.5% are younger than 30, compared to the English average of 37.7%).
As the Beatles called Liverpool home, the city is closely associated with music and the arts. In fact, you can find the 2nd highest number of museums, galleries and listed buildings in the UK scattered in and around the city centre. But if you’re seeking a quieter spot (and the weather allows for it), ask your nearest guide which way Sefton Park is. This 250-acre of lush green space features hidden caves, waterfalls, botanical gardens, and much more.
