Trip to Manchester, United Kingdom 🇬🇧

It was a trip to Manchester, United Kingdom 🇬🇧 It is a city full of history, culture, and stunning architecture, making it a fantastic destination for photography 📸 We began our day at Castlefield, one of the most picturesque areas in Manchester. Arriving early ⛅️ in the morning allowed us to capture the beautiful canals, old brick 🧱 warehouses, and charming bridges without the usual crowds. The morning light ✨ reflected perfectly off the water, making it an ideal spot for stunning photos 📸 If you love urban landscapes with a historic touch, this is the place to be! 📍Castlefield, Manchester M3 4JR, United Kingdom We then walked over to Manchester Town Hall, one of the city’s most iconic landmarks. The neo-Gothic architecture is breathtaking, and we found that late morning ☀️ was the best time for photos, as the sunlight beautifully highlighted the intricate details of the building. Albert Square, right in front of the Town Hall, is also worth capturing, especially when events or markets are taking place 🙌 📍Albert Square, Manchester M60 2LA, United Kingdom We also visited John Rylands Library, and we can’t recommend it enough. The grand reading room looks like something straight out of a Harry Potter film, with its towering bookshelves, arched windows, and warm lighting ✨ The best time to take photos is midday when natural light streams through the stained glass, creating a magical atmosphere 😍 📍150 Deansgate, Manchester M3 3EH, United Kingdom The Northern Quarter was one of our favorite places to explore, especially for street photography 📸 We wandered through the vibrant streets filled with colorful murals, independent cafes ☕️ and vintage shops. The soft afternoon light ✨ made the graffiti pop even more, creating perfect backdrops for unique photos 📸 If you’re into urban and alternative photography, this is a must-visit 💯 📍Northern Quarter, Manchester M4, United Kingdom We also made our way to Salford Quays, where the modern architecture and waterfront views created a breathtaking scene. The reflections of the buildings on the water during golden hour 🕰️ were absolutely stunning. We recommend arriving just before sunset 🌇 to get the best lighting and then staying until the city lights come on for a different perspective ✨ 📍The Quays, Salford M50 3UB, United Kingdom This itinerary gave us the best mix of historic charm, modern cityscapes, and creative urban photography 🙌🙌🙌 #uktrip #vacation #travel
