The Angel of The North
Love it or hate it, Anthony Gormley's Angel is still impressive.
Take a day out, breathe the fresh air and be dwarfed under the
majestic wingspan, just a stone's throw from Newcastle.
Bessie Surtees House
The 16th and 17th century merchant houses where the daughter of
a wealthy banker fell in love with a pauper are as romantic as
their history.
Castle Keep
Built in 1168 on the site of a Roman fort, the keep is all
that's left now. Absorb the history that's soaked into the walls
and marvel at the views across the Tyne from it's rooftop.
Exhibition Park
Playground, crazy golf, skate park, military museum, boating
lake and acres of space to fling a frisbee in. That should blow the
cobwebs away.
Leazes Park
Sit under a tree and read a book, play bowls, or get yourself a
day ticket and a comfy perch and do a spot of fishing.
Hadrians Wall
Britain's greatest Roman monument, Hadrian's Wall World Heritage
Site runs for 150 miles from Arbeia at South Shields to Ravenglass
on the Cumbrian coast. For more information please visit Hadrians Wall website.
