Liverpool's fortunes have historically been tied to shipping. But imports and exports like sugar, spice and tobacco pale in comparison with Liverpool's most famous export of all—the Beatles. Relive the hysteria at the Beatles Story Experience, and check out Paul's childhood home, but also leave time for exploring Liverpool Cathedral and the Walker Art Gallery.

A former school tucked away in the city center. One of the oldest and most attractive buildings in Liverpool now plays host to contemporary art and performance displays. The rear secret garden is a tranquil, picturesque place to take a breather from the surrounding hubbub.

This is original underground command center for the Navy, Air Force and Marines tracking Atlantic enemy submarine and convoy shipping during World War II. The building is encompasses 30,000 square feet of rooms and corridors, including the iconic Operations Room - a huge 20ft high map of the Atlantic ocean, where the movement of allied and enemy ships were plotted throughout the war. Now reopened as a visitor centre, you can spend hours exploring, learning and discovering more about Liverpool during the war, and the stories of the women and men that worked at Western Approaches during the war.
An amazing bit of WWII and Liverpool History, A secret operations room hidden in clear view which was pivotal in ensuring the survival of Britain in WWII. Lot's of "touchable" items and information to understand the context of the displays. The reception staff were friendly and informative and made sure we were properly briefed before we entered the bunker, well worth a visit.
