Bristol is amongst the bigger cities in the UK and is one of the desirable for cultural activities. The times of slavery, discovery and piracy are encompassed in the history of Bristol, alongside its existing twenty-first century technological growth. It is an industrious university city, which gives it a youthful feeling, and so people journey from near and far to inspect. All ages have something of interest to do. Lately, Stag and Hen Nights have added to the cultural mix, but do not take away from what the city offers.
Due to its size and location, it is easy to get to by rail, car, air or train and once there you can have access to the various road links, bus and train services to reach the destination of your choice. Of course there is shopping amongst the other plentiful activities, for example, sight-seeing, attractions, parks, sports and leisure pursuits, and the diverse nightlife. If you need to remain in a hotel for one night or a bed and breakfast for a longer break, all of the activities are backed up by a regalia of different types of accommodation.
There are lots of attractions to take in for example the Bristol Aquarium placed at the Harbourside, with its life-size sunken ship; stingrays soaring around in the water with the tropical sharks and the fabulous seahorse show. Furthermore, there is a wonderful twenty-first century science and technology centre, At Bristol. This place is stuffed with interactive hands-on activities, such as the chrome-plated, other-worldly sphere that is the Planetarium. If you favour to be alfresco there are further sights to see, are fond of Brunel's Clifton Suspension Bridge; or the Westonbirt National Arboretum with its 16 000 rare and stunning trees spread out in over 600 acres, with easy access. The Old Down Country Park is a more family orientated day, with animals like reindeer, llamas and wallabies to look at. Why not have a drink in the cafe afterwards?
If you would like a more cultural experience, go to see the present-day artist Banksy's work on Frogmore Street, Thekla and the Mild, Mild West. A Bristolean, who is globally renowned graffiti artist in the artworld, with his thought-provoking images, nevertheless, he chooses to be anonymous. If you fancy a bit of a scare then the Haunted and Hidden Bristol tour is for you on a Friday evening or go to the Harbourside and meet up with Pirate Pete for a walk to inform you of Bristol's Pirate past. Shop at The Galleries or Cabot Circus to spend an hour or two, or you could go to take in a film at the Cinema Delux and its 13 screens.
If you like to go out in the evening, take a trip to the Old City, where you can have some food and drink at the Llandoger Trow, the oldest pub in the city and a boogie at Mr Wolf's. Woo Woo for cocktails or Las Iguanas for a drink, if something more lively is what you want. A more relaxed place is Racks Bar in Clifton Village. Oceana is a must if you desire to go clubbing.
To sum up, whosoever you are, whatever you want to do Bristol is the city to head for.
