And best of all, like the majority of sites in the city, it’s free!. It’s also one of the biggest universities in the country, so as you wander around the campus, you’ll see plenty of students and professors going from building to building."

"If you’re ever in Manchester, DO NOT leave this city without going to see the John Rylands Library. For any one who felt the pain of not receiving a letter to Hogwarts on their 11th birthday (admit it, we’ve all been there), this might just make up for it (maybe). The exterior of the library is a mix of old and new, with red brick complemented by modern glass architecture."

"Our son had been looking forward to some foot rest with a good book!. If you wish to study any of the 1.4 million rare books, manuscripts or maps in the library collections you can do so by prior appointment and pre-arranged membership. As the museum is a short visit, it may not be worth a special trip with kids in tow."
