Bristol

Bristol is one of the most creative and exciting cities in the whole of the United Kingdom. Sitting in the southwest of England, it has a buzzing energy that comes from its rich history, its world-class art scene, and its spirit of bold invention. Walking through Bristol, you get the feeling that something interesting is always just around the corner — and quite often, it is!

The city is famous for a legendary engineer named Isambard Kingdom Brunel, whose brilliant mind gave the world some genuinely jaw-dropping creations. His elegant suspension bridge still stretches high above a dramatic rocky gorge, and his mighty iron steamship still sits proudly in the city’s historic harbour where visitors can explore it top to bottom. Both feel almost too impressive to believe.

Bristol is also a city where art surprises you. Mysterious, clever street artworks appear on walls across the city, and locals are fiercely proud of them. Add curious science centres, ancient buildings, and wild animals, and you have a city that never gets boring!
