  • Join me for a walk up and down the fascinating city centre of Bristol - one of the UK's largest, liveliest and hilliest cities! Settled for over 1,000 years, Bristol is home to an illustrious history, once one of England's largest ports, and the site of one of the nation's most formidable medieval castles!
    On our walk around Bristol, we pass countless captivating landmarks, including the Wills Memorial Building, Park Street, Banksy's Well Hung Lover, College Green, Bristol City Hall, Bristol Cathedral, the Great Gatehouse, The Royal Hotel, The Centre, Statue of Neptune, St. Augustine's Reach & The Floating Harbour, Pero's Bridge, Queen Square, The Granary, The Llandoger Trow, Bristol Old Vic, Bristol Bridge, Castle Park, the River Avon, St. Nicholas' Church, St. Nicholas' Markets, The Corn Exchange, Bristol High Cross, The Grand Hotel, Everard's Printing Works, St. John's Church on the Wall, Bristol Cenotaph, the plinth of Edward Colston's statue, the Christmas Steps, and Foster's Almshouses.

    I've visited Bristol 3 times and really enjoyed my time there, I only went because it is such a photogenic place , if you're into photography there is something interesting around every corner , Bristol must be the most graffitied city in the UK , I found it's a magnet for left wing nutters ! Anyway I still like the place ! Nice vid by the way luv !

    Excellent walk and commentary. With the exception of parts of Clifton, it can’t be said that Bristol is any longer an attractive city, with so many of even the finest Georgian buildings in a state of disrepair, and almost no wall, bench, surface or public structure escaping from the most hideous graffiti scrawl - I suppose a symptom of having so many students around.

    • @thehilligan
      @thehilligan Год назад +7

      very little to do with "students". Bristol is a major centre for Street Art, with most of the larger works being actually commissioned for specific buildings, with input and monitoring from the local authorities. Visitors come from all over the world to see them. Many of the artist are also from overseas, tho it was Bristol artists and musicians who were key in the develiopment of this. There is a major Street Art Festival which has now resumed, post-Covid.

      Bristol needs to redevelop the worst postwar architecture. The horrible 50s amd 60s stuff. It also needs a major tram and or underground. I wish they'd rebuild buildings like the Dutch House.

    Brilliant as usual! At 20:--something you said "in what are now the United States..." and technically it should read "what is now the United States". Yeah I know, picky picky. Up till the end of the US Civil War (1861-1865), the "United States ARE", but after the war, we became singular, "the United States IS". My thanks to documentarian Ken Burns for that bit of wisdom. Thanks again for all your hard work over there, we really appreciate it.

    A little more research into the number of African ‘slaves’ in Bristol needs to be done. There were little to no slaves in Bristol. They were brought as servants from the West Indies, not directly from Africa.

    Walk down Park Street at 10pm on a Friday/Saturday 😂. Bristol does have some real pretty landmarks near the centre but many other areas are dirty, lots of immigrants, overpopulation and high property prices(I think it’s in the top 5). Young working class families are now moving to Wales to rent.

    Bristol city fell into the hands of talentless architect's and corrupt planners since the war. Big contractor's fill their pockets parasiting Bristol and I'm sure those in planning benefit from it financially, otherwise we might have had a truly loved and beautiful city, and that could only have happened if we had been determined to employ respectful architect's with talent. There are small pocket's of Bristol with a hint of it's ancient Soul we can still proudly point tourist's to, aplogising when overshadowed by tower's of a growing concete jungle and swathes of tarmac, potholes, and badly laid pavement's. George Ferguson you were at least that much better than the present day Mayor. Sadly the city has been taken by woke ideologies and this mental illness may never be cured.
