The dock area🚢 is a popular area for visitors. It is recommended to visit the M Shed Museum to learn more about Bristol. 📍The Bristol Port in the city center is quite old, dating back to the 13th century. In the early 1800s, the port area at the confluence of the Avon and Frome rivers was converted into a floating port. The tidal drop of the Avon River averages 15 meters (the second largest drop in the world), and the water in the dock🚢 maintains a constant draft through a system of canals, locks and pumps. This 70-acre site now has almost no import and export use; the center of the region's port facilities is located in Avonmouth, where the Avon River meets the Bristol Channel.

#bristoltrip Bristol’s vibrant spirit is beautifully reflected in its famous rainbow-colored houses. Nestled on the hills, these charming facades create a postcard-perfect view that adds a cheerful touch to the city’s landscape. Walking through these streets feels like stepping into a painting, with every turn offering a new burst of color. Whether viewed from the harborside or up close in Cliftonwood, the bright hues contrast beautifully with Bristol’s historic architecture. A must-see spot for photographers and travelers looking to experience the city’s unique character!

Bristol is one of England’s most vibrant cities but is often overlooked by visitors when coming to the country. The city has a fantastic maritime history which can easily be viewed by walking around its harbour area which has been completely redeveloped from its industrial past into a vibrant spot filled with markets, restaurants and bars. The perfect spot to spend a mild summers evening taking in the views. #bristol #harbour #voyagevibes

During a weekend stay in Bristol. I discovered the harbourside of Bristol. It quickly became one of my favourite areas to hang out. The area is very lively and colorful. It is filled with markets, bars, restaurants and ferry boats that offer tours. When the weather allows there's a lot of water sports like windsurfing, paddle and rowing can be seen happening. What I also love about the harbour side is it's location and proximity to many things. The city centre or the millenium square is not too far from here. And so you've easy access to the fairground there, we the curious musuem, planetarium, the bristol aquarium, m shed and the list goes on. Twice I also ate around the millenium square, good dining options around there. Besides exploring the food scene and many activities around the bristol harbour. I also recommend getting a boat tour. It is one of the best ways of seeing the harbourside. This one is highly recommended! #uktrip#harbourfront #bristol #localguides #100waysoftravel #mytravelhacks #summerdestinations #familytrip #myhiddengems #cherryblossom2024
