LIVERPOOL

Liverpool is one of the largest cities on England. People started living on Liverpool on 1207. It became a city in 1880. Liverpool is on the River Mersey with easy access to the Atlantic. It became a major sea port in the 18th century.
Blighted by urban decay after decades of economic decline, Liverpool may not sound like an appealing place to visit, yet the resilient Liverpudlians (or "Scousers"), the twin modern cathedrals, the first-rate art galleries and score of museums, the musical and maritime heritage, make this one of England's most engrossing cities.
