About Liverpool
This international city, which was once home to the Beatles, has been selected as nominee for European Capital of Culture 2008. This great honour will help the city to grow, by developing the well-established foundations, to create a city that simply can't lose.
Historically, Liverpool was the heart of maritime Britain. This architectural gateway to the world can still be seen today - Liverpool's Albert Dock houses the country's largest collection of Grade One Listed Buildings, and forms a part of Liverpool's bid to become a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
Today, Liverpool is bursting with culture and life. The city boasts great sporting heroes, talented musicians and brilliant artists. The university is thriving, producing better and better results each year, and the football team is one of the best in the country. |
