S5:Ep5 - Exploring Manchester, UK (England)
MAY 2024
Join me this month as I explore the historic market town of Bury in Greater Manchester. We'll journey from metro to bus, ending up in Ramsbottom to focus on the iconic Holcombe Hill and the majestic Peel Tower, a tribute to former UK Prime Minister Robert Peel. Built in 1852, this 128-foot tower offers stunning views of the surrounding landscapes.
Experience the 30-minute climb up Holcombe Hill, navigating a challenging cobblestone path that transitions into gravel and rocks, all while enjoying picturesque scenery and grazing goats. At the summit, be rewarded with panoramic views of Bury, and on clear days, glimpses of Manchester and Wales.
Additionally, discover the vibrant neighborhoods of Manchester, from the bustling City Centre and trendy Northern Quarter to the historic Castlefield and bohemian Chorlton. Each neighborhood offers its own unique character and amenities, making Manchester a city rich in diversity and culture.
