How to spend a day in the Baltic Triangle, Liverpool’s ultra-cool creative district

Our microguides series is inspired by the slow travel movement, encouraging travellers to relax their pace and take a deep dive into one particular neighbourhood in a well-loved city. Rather than a whirlwind itinerary that aims to hit up every must-see attraction, these compact, close-up guides encourage you to zone in, take your time and truly explore like a local.

Ten years ago, walking any further south along the River Mersey than Liverpool’s Albert Dock would lead you to nothing more than a bunch of industrial warehouses. But since then, these once abandoned buildings have become home to some of the city’s most-loved bars, restaurants and creative spaces in an area now known as the Baltic Triangle.
