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!

MikeStarr5 Mon Oct 29, 2007 22:50 UTC 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. | iris2002 Wed Aug 9, 2006 12:22 UTC Canny aii... :) I used to live there too as my introduction to the UK ----haha --- HAPPY BIRTHDAY to the toon!!! :D Probably the only Austrian who can understand Geordie hihi... | Carmela71 Thu Mar 25, 2004 13:21 UTC Geordie accent!! ...
