Daniel Liebskind's Imperial War Museum is a powerful place and really evokes the sense of a globe torn apart by conflict. Worth visiting for the building alone.

If there's any way you can get hold of a ticket to see either of Manchester's two football teams, you must. It's impossible to understand Manchester without seeing passions flare up at the football!

A bit of a megaplex, but the Lowry is definitely worth navigating to have a look at the great man's paintings. Its a strange aesthetic but really bears witness to the grim standards of living in the industrial north.

I stayed for one night at the Hotel Velvet as part of a weeks trip around the United Kingdom. The location of the hotel is what I liked most as it is 5 minutes away from the Piccadilly Train Station and about 10 minutes to Chinatown and all the other major sights in Manchester. I just wanted a room that is comfortable to stay in and soundproofed, so that I could have a good night's sleep and that was just what I got. Food at dinner and breakfast were both good and the restaurant had plenty to offer for both the meals.
