MY HOME TOWN !

by martyfrize - last update: Mar 25, 2004

More than a night on the Town!

Tall ships event on the Tyne
Cosmopolitan bars, restaurants, clubs & coffee bars are opening throughout the city providing a great night out. Newcastle has become THE place to party, & a popular venue for stag & hen weekends.

And the morning after....... walk along the riverside & view the 7 bridges across the Tyne, the medieval city walls & the "New Castle" from which the city gets it's name.

A wealth of galleries, museums, theatres, art & live music venues throughout the city. Endless shopping opportunities, including the Metrocentre complex, once Europe's largest indoor shopping experience. Shop 'til ya drop!

Getting there & away, try www.flybe.co.uk or Easyjet for flights as low as £10.

 Great pic - Thanks. Here in "Barking Town" we have the UK's 2nd largest public artwork called "Holding Pattern" - It's 70m long x 50m wide and almost 6m high. It cost £650,000 to build and only Anthony Gormley's “Angel of the North” is bigger.
