Step back in time at the wartime air-raid shelters and experience the sights and sounds of Britain’s Home Front. Visitors can walk through original tunnels, carefully re-equipped to show what daily life was like during the 1940s, and follow the stories of locals through clear, well-curated displays and an audio guide. First opened in 1939, the shelters were the largest purpose-built civilian air-raid shelters in the country, originally designed for 3,850 people and later expanded during 1940–41 to hold up to 6,500. Cut directly into the sandstone cliffs beneath the town centre, the mile-long network offers a rare look at wartime engineering and civilian life. The site reopened in 1996 as a visitor attraction after restoration by Stockport Council and has since become one of the town’s most important museums. Today, it works as both a memorial and an educational space, giving a direct sense of how communities lived through the air raids.

This long and sheltered beach is very popular among both tourists and locals. With its crystal clear water and white sand it is also very beautiful. Some of the services you find here include boat hiring and sunbeds, and for those who wish to spend more than one day here there are also hotels close by.

Situated in the heart of the historic district, San Lorenzo is the primary cathedral of Genoa, renowned for its striking black and white striped marble facade, which dates back to the 12th century. Inside the cathedral, visitors can marvel at the breathtaking interior, replete with high ceilings, towering columns, and exquisite stained glass. The basement of the cathedral is home to the Treasure Museum, which is definitely worth a visit.
