Loved every aspect of this museum. Firstly, it doesn't feel like just one museum. There is an actual SS Great Britain exhibition, with so much to learn about the ship, before even stepping foot on it. 
Mini Titanic We went to the steamship in October. It was a little chilly, but we still needed to wear thick clothes. The ship was well maintained and magnificent. Bristol is also a big city in the UK. It is a certain distance from the city center, and you need to take a bus to get there. The ship is not big, and there are a few mezzanines. It takes about an hour to walk around. I was impressed that there was someone playing the piano inside. He played a classic song for us. It was free when I went there. You should visit it once.

I've been here countless times growing up & always enjoyed playing in the park as a kid or having BBQs pre Covid with friends on really warm days
I think Bristol Castle is not the highlight, but the back garden is the highlight! There are many flowers and various plant introductions, which is a great feeling! It is the perfect place for leisure and entertainment, very beautiful and shocking! Recommended~
