March 2018 - We arrived in Liverpool late afternoon. Enough time to walk along the docks, see the 3 gracies and get a glimps of the city. Of course we visited the Beatles exhibition first, well actually just the gift shop, went to the Tate Modern in the Albert Docks and marveled at the gigantic early skyscrapers.
Liverpool reminded us of a mixture of Hamburg and Seattle. It had a very specific spirit. The area around Cave Club was crowded with drunk tourists, but the harbour area was definitely worth a visit.
The next morning we drove along the abandoned factories in the north, that are being discussed at the moment, due to lack of conservation. Nice architecture and very authentic, but who knows how long. The picture was taken 3km north of the centre.
