Hello everybody. Today, I’m in Bristol
and I’m going to explore this great city in the southwestern part of England.
Right now, I am in Queen Square. It was created in 1699.
It was later on transformed into a dual carriage way and
there were 20,000 vehicles passing through here every day.
However, about 20 years ago, they decided to take it back to its roots
and make it into a park again so we can enjoy it in its original splendour.
I think that was a good idea. Look how lovely it is around here.
Did you know that Bristol has been ranked the most sustainable city in Britain
and the Sunday Times has named it the Best City in Britain in which to live.
It has also received the European Green Capital Award
as the first U.K. city to receive this award.
Wow, guys! I’m excited for this.
This is a very interesting part of Bristol called Castle Park.
It’s a very old building. It was built in the 11th century and,
I must say, it’s been very well taken care of.
It’s quite interesting coming up close to old buildings like this.
You see that the individual bricks or stones are very different from modern day brick buildings.
They’re all very different sizes.
This one is very small, some are long and some are very big.
But when they’re all put together, they build this one, massive, beautiful entity.
Apparently, this is a good place for kissing.
Now we’re at St. Nicholas Market on Corn Street.
It’s both an indoor and an outdoor market that’s open every day except Sundays.
It seems like you could find just about anything here, so let’s go check it out.
That’s pretty cool. Maybe I can buy this for my mom.
Here’s some jewelry as well if you want to look a little bit swagged out,
you know, with rings and stuff.
Here are some nice earrings. People like to look good here in Bristol.
I see they’ve got some toys there if you’ve got kids or if you just like playing with toys.
You know you’re never too old for that.
There are some nice little ponies and a big, bad dinosaur.
It’s like Jurassic Park out here.
I do not want to drop that one.
Also for those who are musically gifted,
you can buy interesting things here …
if you can actually play.
You know, it’s a little bit chilly today, so maybe I should buy some clothes.
Does this suit me?
Guys, now I’ve found something that I’ve wanted for a very long time: a pair of cat gloves.
Look how beautiful my hands can be.
This is pretty cool as well. They’re old vintage Star Wars figures.
I’ve got a nice little Stormtrooper here. I might start a collection.
Now let’s check out the indoor market. It’s very crowded in here. It’s a popular place.
Here are some nice hats. Oh, now we’ve found something even fancier.
What do you think? Yay or nay? Leave a comment below.
It’s got a cowboy vibe, you know? Like in a western.
I think we’re onto something now. This and this.
I think I’m going to rock this whole look. I think this is the new me. I like this one.
I look maybe more sophisticated, like the more cultured and cultivated Liam.
No? Yes? No? What do you think?
This is quite funny. I’ve never seen this before.
They’ve got dog ties just in case you want your canine companion to also look sophisticated.
I must say, they have clothes here that I’ve never seen anywhere else before.
They’re all very colourful. There are some creative designers behind these.
Now, we’re entering the food section. There are all sorts of tasty things here we can eat.
Let’s take a look around. I’m already salivating.
My goodness, there’s a lot of good food here. This looks good.
Okay, time to eat this crepe.
I’ve bought two different types of crepes: one spinach and one chilly with different sides.
There are some lentils and beans and some type of sauce.
Let’s try this. Very good, very fresh flavours.
I like this. They’ve used a lot of spice, which I like.
It’s a very special market, this one. It’s very eclectic.
They’ve got things from the weird clothing that we saw to cutlery, to this food.
It’s a very unique experience. It’s been good!
Excuse me for talking with my mouth full, but this is very tasty.
Apparently, Bristol claims to have been built on seven hills, just like Rome.
I don’t know if that’s entirely true, but we are on one of these hills and,
if we continue that way, by that tower,
there’s supposed to be an amazing view of the entire city. So, let’s go.
It’s good exercise walking up this hill. Let’s hope the view is good.
We’re going to go inside this Cabot Tower and then we can finally see the full view of the city.
This is a very narrow staircase.
It’s good to hold onto the railing, too, so you don’t fall over.
It’s quite high up.
There are a lot of stairs, but we’re finally at the top.
Okay, the moment of truth.
Wow. This is beautiful!
It was definitely worth walking up the hill and all these stairs to see this beautiful view.
You can see everything - all parts of the city from the left to the right.
It’s a perfect moment to take a selfie. Beautiful. That’s going on Instagram.
This was my first time visiting Bristol and it’s been really fun discovering the city.
