"Of the city's older buildings, the real gem is the John Rylands Library on Deansgate, a little masterpiece of Victorian Gothic nestling amid a forest of shops and office blocks. From the outside, the library looks so like a medieval church, with its turrets and stained-glass windows, that it comes as a surprise to learn that it is barely a hundred years old. Inside, it is a bibliophile's dream, a warren of dusty, book-lined rooms, with pride of place going to an original fragment of the Old Testament.Contact: library.manchester.ac.uk"

"Founded by brothers Ben and Joe Wright, there are now three Porta wine and tapas bars spread across the north-west, the latest of which opened in Salford at the end of 2018. The Iberian-influenced tapas – staples of jamón, croquetas and patatas bravas but also slow-roasted ox cheek, pickled walnuts and purple sprouting broccoli with romesco sauce – is complemented by a carefully curated selection of Spanish wines, cava, beer, sherries and vermouth."

"Perch on a wooden stool and prop up the bar at this elegant tapas joint where you can taste your way through sunny classics like gooey-centred tortilla and crisp croquettes with an indulgent cheese filling. It can get very busy, but any restaurant that makes us feel like we’re holidaying by the Med is worth queuing for."

"In a city with the biggest student population outside of London, it would be absurd for the prevailing university culture not to have some influence on the art scene. Housed within the University of Leeds campus in the Grade II listed Art Deco Parkinson Building, The Stanley and Audrey Burton Gallery showcases a mix of contemporary art as well as works from the university’s special collections department spanning over 200 years. The gallery expectedly supports and promotes its students’ and its graduates’ work, in addition to displays from local artists and those from further afield."
