Traveler reviews

★★★★★Edited 8 months agoWarm, friendly people. Great City. Liver birds: Royal Liver Building, Liverpool, England. The two Liver birds are 5.5 m (18 ft) tall. A mythical bird the symbol of Liverpool. Represented as a Cormorant, it bears a branch of laver seaweed in its beak as a further pun on the name “Liverpool” Opened in 1911. The Liver building was built for the Royal Liver Assurance group, which had been set-up in the city of Liverpool 1850, to provide local people with assistance relating to losing a wage-earning relative.

★★★★★Edited 5 months agoBeautiful spot to sit and take in the architecture. Lots of people sit and eat. Office workers on lunch. Tourists with coffee. Nice space..mordern design surrounded by beautiful buildings. The section is not accessible from here and do not see canal boats etc its must a art work..it can be used for boats but only on special occasions. In heart of city invrween pier head and alber dock.
