As the New Year begins, here at LiverpoolWorld we have been reflecting on the last twelve months.
We've experienced some pretty wild weather, from heavy snow in March to an early autumn heatwave, and Merseyside has played host to major events such as Eurovision and The Open.
Thinking about everything that has happened on Merseyside in 2023 has us feeling nostalgic so we asked our readers to share their favourite photographs of the area, taken this year.
Below are a series of fantastic photographs taken by LiverpoolWorld readers in 2023, showcasing just how beautiful Merseyside is, as well as a couple of key moments captured by us.
