Manchester - by Manish Abraham
Manchester-
Manchester is a city and metropolitan in Greater Manchester, England.
Manchester lies within the United Kingdom's third largest urban area; the Greater Manchester Urban Area. I visited Manchester with a few of my friends from Newcastle, We took a coach from Newcastle in the morning and reached there in 2 hours. Manchester is situated in the south-central part of North West England; Manchester's unplanned urbanization was brought on by a boom in textile manufacture during the Industrial Revolution, and resulted in it becoming the world's first industrialized city.
The city is notable for its culture, architecture, music scene, media links, engineering and scientific output, social impact and sporting connections. Manchester's sports clubs include Premier League football teams, Manchester City and Manchester United. We visited the Manchester United stadium at Old Trafford, Manchester was the site of one of the world's first railway stations, and the place where scientists first split the atom and developed the first stored-program computer. We also saw the metro tram project which will be one of the largest tram networks in UK. People from Manchester are known as Mancunians and were very friendly, Though Manchester city center was small but the city was very wide and we got an opportunity to travel all across the city.
