Imagine strolling along Salford Quays for some great waterfront pics. It's located 1 mi (1.7 km) from central Salford. It's also full of great shops and restaurants, so you can spend the afternoon having a wander. If you carry on walking you'll get to Barton Swing Aqueduct for some more water views.
You can get tickets for a performance at The Lowry Art and Entertainment during your trip to Salford. Attend a football game or simply enjoy the lively bars while you're in the area.
