    Liverpool's best area, along with fantastic eateries, stores, a museum, the Tate Art Gallery, etc. There is almost always something going on here; if not, simply stroll beside the river. Liverpool's waterfront is simply breathtaking, with great contemporary buildings blending seamlessly with historic ones. There are museums, amazing food carts, and people from all over the world, both tourists and locals.
