Is that because you have no responses then ?

The final paragraph is exactly what the regional tourist industry sells !

Nothing negative just reality as opposed to relentless optimism sans foundation !

It applies to vast vast majority of British regional cities most tourism IS pretty locally generated . Could equally apply to similar cities anywhere in Europe as well - Parts of Nantes aren’t pretty either .

List of things to see in Liverpool ( according to Visit Liverpool )

Docks/ Maritime Museum Area
Ferry trip
Peaky Blinder Tours
Beatles Tours
Football stadium Tours
Shopping
And yes some nice eateries
And that night life and clubbing.

Yes you have some excellent galleries and museum no doubt - However few would make repeat long trips for those - caveat an occasional person to see a specific artist and exhibition - That said many of the touring ones will probably have other venues as will music events.

More interesting are the cities association with the slave trade and cotton and similar commodities on a global scale and the impact of the Industrial Revolution and canals and railways - All is shared and inextricably linked with the neighbouring cities and the North West identity.

A trip to the official Visit Liverpool web site implies a maximum entertainment experience would be 48 hours at a push , oh and then goes on to offer a range of other trips out of town to the likes of Chester, The Lakes , North Wales and laughably The Trafford Centre and indeed Manchester.

Thats not anger just cold headed reality

You need to grasp some critical thinking and develop interpersonal skills , read and stop attacking individuals .

Critique comments and offer alternative views .
