The heart of Blackpool |

All
the fun of the seaside at this
most English of seaside resorts,
one of the largest with miles of
sand, miles of hotels and
accommodation of all standards,
lots of amusements, attractions,
restaurants, pubs, clubs, chip
shops, ... everything for the
happy holiday maker. If you go
in winter its windblown, cold,
damp, and mostly closed up.
Once the holiday centre of the
North, with trains taking the
workers to the seaside
playground in the summer during
the factory annual shutdowns.
Now still a popular family
resort. Lots to do including 7
miles of beaches, the Blackpool
Indoor Bowls Centre, and the
Superbowl, a 30-lane
computerised ten pin centre.
There are two cinemas as well as
a multi-screen, brass bands at
the bandstands, and boating
lakes.
The resort has three piers,
the North pier, a refurbished
Central Pier with a Big Wheel,
and the South Pier that has its
own theatre.
Every autumn, early September
to early November, there is
Blackpool Illuminations when the
whole town lights up along five
miles. There are famous places
here such as Blackpool Tower
Ballroom, the scene of dancing
for many years, as well as band
concerts and shows.
Don't forget the Tourist
Information centre in the town.
A major shopping area includes
Hounds Hill Shopping Centre. To
get around, try the famous
trams, running on 11 miles of
track. |
