Why visit Newcastle?
The northern city of Newcastle is one of England’s finest. Draped in Victorian architecture, and rising up along the banks of the Tyne, this city embraces its gritty industrial past, and hefty history, but has leapt forward in time to become a truly chic and contemporary European metropolis. With its large student population and young professionals seeking out fortune in the Jewel of the North, Newcastle-Upon-Tyne has been reinvented with a trendy bar scene, excellent eateries, a hopping nightlife, and a range of museums, galleries, libraries and theatres that will keep any guest entertained.
Things to do in Newcastle
Head to Quayside, where you can see the iconic Tyne and High Level bridges that have given Newcastle its distinct look, but also where you can explore the historic buildings of the city. See the Merchant’s Court and Guildhall in Sandhill, and be sure to make time for Bessie Surtees House, considered to be fine examples of the merchant’s houses from the Jacobean era. Nearby, there is also the Victoria Tunnel, an underground passage that runs between Town Moor to the Tyne, and used to transport coal in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Of course, for anyone interested in architectural or archeological sites in Newcastle, one of the best places to head is the Castle Keep, once the gateway of the city, this medieval fortress has everything from a king’s chamber to eerie dungeons, and makes for a great day out.
This city is also brilliant for museums and galleries, some of which are can’t-miss attractions. Visit the Discovery Museum that really delves into Newcastle’s industrial history, which huge ships and machinery on display. Or see the Great North Museum, which has a higgledy piggeldy collection of artefacts from ancient Egypt and Rome. For art lovers, it is the Laing Art Gallery that is the most impressive, with a huge collection of British oil paintings, along with works in glassware and ceramics.
Outside of the cultural attractions, visitors can head down to the beautiful Armstrong Park, one of the city’s loveliest for a daytime wander, or enjoy the restaurants of Stowell Street, or the huge shopping complex in Eldon Square.
