Descrizione dall'autore

In recent years, Liverpool have been trying to get rid of their bad image. They invest heavily in major tourist attractions and the general safety of the city. Security or police officers are visible everywhere and there are poles with a 'help' button. Posters in the city warn citizens about the dangers of drink and drugs. Separately, yes, but it seems to work somewhat. Liverpool was a no-go zone in the 80s, now it is a pleasant city where there is a lot to do.

One of the city's most famous poles of attraction is The Beatles. The group originated in Liverpool during the early 60s and still receives a lot of attention here. The Beatles Story is a museum similar to the ABBA in Stockholm. You can get acquainted with the origins of the group and there is a look back at the hits.

Liverpool has an infinite array of free museums. We make a selection and take the time for the unique story that each of these museums has to tell. This is how we end up early in the morning, as the first visitors, in the World Museum. This museum can be compared to the National History Museum in Washington D.C.. We find a mixed bag of unrelated topics ranging from insects and mummies to an exhibition of clocks and space travel. Everything is educational, but we cannot get rid of the impression that the focus is mainly on children. The museum is, despite a number of interactive installations, rather static and somewhat corny. We enjoy the stories of ancient Egypt the most.

Most museums are located on the Albert Dock, a pleasant promenade on the Mersey River. The old docks were given a new purpose after their past as a glorious port city and is now the place to be. In addition to the aforementioned Beatles Story, you will find a permanent Ferris wheel and many restaurants here.

In the Museum Of Liverpool, the story of the city is explained in detail and clearly. Another interesting exhibition at the Museum of Liverpool is The End of the Line. This revolves around the Liverpool Overhead Railway. This railway ran along the city's waterfront from 1893 to 1956. Finally, there is a temporary exhibition Tales From The City. It commemorates the fiftieth anniversary on which homosexuality was removed from the penal code in England. The Museum of Liverpool is definitely recommended to get to know Liverpool's past. Contemporary themes are also discussed. The exhibitions are clear and tidy. Highly recommended.

The Merseyside Maritime Museum focuses on Liverpool's maritime past. Through various themes we get acquainted with life at sea. We spend most of our time at the exhibition about Lusitania. This passenger ship with almost 2,000 people on board was bombed off the coast of Liverpool during World War I. In less than twenty minutes the ship sank, resulting in almost 1,200 deaths. The sinking of an unarmed ship caused much uproar in Liverpool, London and elsewhere in the world. Liverpool was in mourning for a long time, as more than 400 deaths came from local families. Later, a lot of war propaganda was made against the Germans with the sinking Lusitania as an image. The British were out for revenge! Even more suffering at sea in the exhibition around Titanic. This ship needs no introduction. Again, many Liverpool residents were involved, mostly crew members. Maritime life is clearly not rosy ... Although: in Hello Sailor! attention is paid to LGBT life at sea on trading and passenger ships in the 50s to 80s. Life at sea was all about glitz and glamour. Everyone could be themselves, regardless of the restrictive laws that still existed on the mainland at that time. To communicate with each other, gays then used polari, a secret language with its own vocabulary.

Still around the Albert Dock is the Tate Liverpool Museum, a branch of the famous museum in London. However, we no longer have time for this due to the short opening hours of the museums in the city. At 17h00 it's over with the fun.
