Manchester has embraced change wholeheartedly, restoring its industrial landscape and combining that heritage with contemporary urban design to create a cityscape that blends the best of the old with the brightest of the new.

The civic ambition that saw it bid for not one but two Olympic Games has delivered a re-vitalised city centre with an enviable array of new cultural and sporting facilities. Modern day Manchester is a vital and sophisticated urban capital that influences the world in science, business, fashion, style, music and culture. A visit to Manchester Central is the ideal opportunity to experience the ‘original modern’ city first hand.
