Текст к презентации "Bus tour to Manchester"

Good afternoon, dear tourists!

Welcome to this fantastic bus sightseeing tour of Manchester. (слайд 1)

My name is Valeriya and I’m your guide for today. The weather is fine and I hope you will enjoy your trip.

As you can see, we’ll travel by a famous British double-decker. So you can watch and take pictures of all sights from your seats.

Manchester was founded in 1301 in the North-West of England.

We start our tour near one of the oldest buildings in our city – The City Hall – built in Neo-Gothic style. Inside you can see a portrait of the first man in space – Yuri Gagarin – placed there since 1961 (слайд 2)

At the moment we are passing by the University of Manchester, the third popular British university after Oxford and Cambridge. (слайд 2)

Now we are in Quay Street. Here you can see one of the largest Manchester's theatres - the  Opera House. It’s worth visiting! Every evening you can attend amazing performances here! (слайд 3).

Not far from it the Whitworth Art Gallery. It displays about 55,000 art works by Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, William Blake and other great artists. (тоже слайд 3)

Right now in front of us you can see the futuristic Trinity footbridge over the river Irwell that was built in 1955. (слайд 4)
