 Manchester travel guide - Wikitravel
Manchester is world-renowned for its influence on the histories of industry and music, and for its sporting connections.
Manchester used to have a reputation for being a dirty and boring city, but things have dramatically changed in the last decade and it is now a more pleasant, open, clean and exciting place, and well worth a visit, even if just for a day.
Manchester has or had a colourful reputation for gun crime: however, this was mostly gang-related and a problem for people involved in the drug trade, and as a visitor you will not face any greater danger than for any other large British city.
