The biggest city in the south-west of England, Bristol, has a rich history. In the 15th century boats would set sail from here bound for Ireland, France and America. It was also the terminus for the UK’s first major railway, built by Isambard Kingdom Brunel.
To find out more just head to the city´s new museum, opening on the 17th June. The aim of M Shed is to tell the story of the city and its people, from prehistoric times to the 21st century. Among its exhibits you will find the electric cranes, the fire boat and the harbor steam train, which will take you directly to those early years.
If you are going to Bristol we also suggest that you visit the Georgian house if you are interested in knowing more about how people have lived in this lovely city throughout time. If Nature is more your cup of tea, don’t forget to have a wander around the Zoo or the Aquarium. The best hotels in Hotelopia!
