9. Try our local dish
Usually made with chunks of beef or lamb, Scouse is a hearty stew featuring potatoes, carrots and onions and usually served with crusty bread and pickled beetroot/cabbage. It is believed to have originated from the Port of Liverpool, and was traditionally made with whatever leftovers were available. Its name comes from 'lobscouse' which is a European sailors' stew. | The Ship & Mitre

10. Shop and eat on Bold Street
Some of Liverpool’s best independent, veggie and vegan shops and cafes are on Bold Street. Home to longstanding wholefood shop, Matta’s, and a quirky community book shop, you’re guaranteed to find something new. | Emma Dukes

11. Explore the Palm House
fton Park’s Palm House was a gift to the city of Liverpool by local benefactor Henry Yates Thompson. When it opened to the public in 1896, it quickly became a popular visitor attraction. Some of those plants are still thriving here today despite the Palm House falling into a state of dereliction in the 1990s. It is truly magnificent and a real slice of Liverpool's history. | Paul - stock.adobe.com

12. Eat at one of the city's most treasured restaurants
One of Liverpool’s oldest and most-treasured restaurants, Casa Italia has proudly served customers for almost fifty years, gaining a cult following since it opened in 1976. Often seen with queues down the street, it is worth the wait and a great option for foodies. | Emma Dukes
