Things to do in Liverpool

The Cavern Club is a famous live music venue in the center of Liverpool. Founded in 1957, it is best-known today as the place where The Beatles shot to UK superstardom. As such it's often referred to as the cradle of British pop music. The original venue was demolished but rebuilt using 15,000 original bricks. It continues to serve as a platform for new artists - and a living museum of British music legend.

The Western Approaches Museum is as authentic a war museum as you're likely to find.

Visitors are able to wander from room to secret room, analysing original documents and tools which were used to pinpoint enemy locations and give the Allies the upper hand. There's even one of two surviving phones which had a direct line to Winston Churchill's infamous War Rooms!
