What seems to be a reoccurring trend it was a beautiful day when it was time to end my holiday.
It was the last day, and I thought I’d take one of the MP3 walking tours that you can download from the Visit Bristol website, which started at Temple Meads Station.
… a short walking to St. Mary Redcliffe
… from there, a walk back to the docks for an ice cream outside Arnolfini it boasts “In a fantastic waterside location at the heart of Bristol’s harbourside, Arnolfini is one of Europe’s leading centres for the contemporary arts.“
Walking along the harbour, you get at great view of Cabot Tower.
… another short walk through Underfall Yard a historic boatyard on Spike Island serving Bristol Harbour.
The Cumberland Basin – “The River Avon never flowed through the Cumberland Basin. Before the 19th century improvements and the construction of the non-tidal Floating Harbour, the Avon flowed through the tidal harbour and out through the future location of the basin.”
… a nice shot of the Clifton Suspension Bridge…
… it was a hot day, so rather than walking back I took a river taxi – glad I did the views were great.
… and then off home, would I visit again? I would! amazing place.
