@kathchandler4919 21 день назад

I love it, but, there again I'm from here ! There are 7 bridges, the footbridge or Millenium Bridge is nicknamed the Winking Eye Bridge, reason being it lifts and tips up for boats to pass under. If you're downriver , near the bend in the river,( in fact the Free Trade in slightly up from the river) as the Bridge opens , you'll see it exactly aligns with the iconic Tyne Bridge , exactly like an eyelid blinking ! Also, the Bridge lights up in multicolour at night 🎉❤

I'm a Southerner, but a proud Newcastle United fan (family & Alan Shearer reasons). Newcastle Upon Tyne is a truly, truly special, beautiful place. The people are wonderful, warm and friendly, proud of their city and welcoming to anyone who comes to enjoy. It's just a lovely place, the architecture and history is incredible, the river Tyne is beautiful, the football club is in my biased opinion, the greatest most passionate in the land, and the nightlife is absolutely incredible. A fantastic place to spend time.

I’m from Middlesbrough and now live I the City of Durham so I’m from the North East region . In essence Newcastle is the largest city and could be said to be the regions capital . I’ve quite a few Geordie pals and Newcastle is an amazing city , very vibrant , it’s buzzing with a lot of history too . One of the best things about Newcastle is it’s people like all North East folk they are friendly , very welcoming you won’t find more friendly folk than this region . If your young in Newcastle you can have the time of your life too endless bars , clubs , Restaurants as a young man I loved the record shops in Newcastle. There’s plenty to do , I’ve never had a bad night out there .

How do you not know about Newcastle? Always been ranked as one of the best, usually the best nightlife destinations in the UK. Also always considered one of the best away trips for football fans around the country. It has some of the most beautiful architecture & finest stretches of coastline anywhere. Newcastle always comes to mind for a city break, unless youve been living under a rock. Anything but underated!

Enjoyed hearing the sea gulls. They are actually Kittiwakes. A rare colony based around the Tyne bridge if you listen carefully their call is kitti wake. The millennial bridge is super especially when it “blinks” shut to let larger boats past. Newcastle is like lots of other North East places. A Hidden Gem. The countryside nearby is fantastic. Weardale, Teesdale and the coast are stunning.

The model yellow double decker is a NE icon, like red buses are to London. It was powered by overhead electricity lines, but as it has tyres & doesn't run on rails, it's a trolley bus, not a tram. You just strolled past the Turbinia, that's powered by the world's first practical steam turbine, so it's hugely significant. Every power station and jet engine originates from it. You sat in a yurt (or the frame of one) in the bar, a type of tent used by yak herders in Mongolia.

Nice, love the old period architecture in Newcastle. Also, am a fan of those arcade shopping alley and the Grainger market is lovely especially those old charming old stores. I am not a drinker but I do like the vibes and the deco at the pub. Very unique and the pies look yum.

Same here! We can resonate with all what you’ve just said - the old vibes and architecture of Newcastle just added a charm to the city 😍 And these pies were delicious! So glad we got recommended this place by the local!

The seagulls are actually kittiwakes, it’s the furthest in land they nest in Europe. The poop is a pain but the birds are protected.

@JayandKarolina 13 дней назад

Great to know! We actually didn't mind the birds because it's a true sign you're close to the coast but the poop is disgusting 😂 And knowing that you need to be careful all the time around them would be slightly annoying haha

Great review of our beautiful town. The birds on the Baltic and under the bridge are actually kittiwakes. They are protected and vulnerable species . And they come here in summer then spend winter at sea. Newcastle is most inland breeding colony in the world.

Lived in Newcastle during college. Wild times. Keep heading north to Northumberland (where i live now) and its soaked in just as much history as the city. So many hidden gems around this part of the UK that no one knows about. Thats why the shops are shut. No one comes here. Thats why i love seeing videos like these popping up really showcasing the city and its secrets. I hope they help other people discover what cracking place it is up here

No vampires buried in St Andrews churchyard, but Gallowgate - the street that it stands on - is an abbreviation of Gallows Gate, where felons were hanged just outside the city wall, hence the area of unconsecrated ground in the churchyard.

If you ever do visit newcastle again as many have said the coast is very nice. If you get the metro to tynemouth station there's also a very nice market in tynemouth station every saturday and sunday (my wife works there so you can buy something off her haha). From the station it's a very nice walk around tynemouth, especially on a sunny day (which we do get, sometimes). Also it's quite a bit further out, but if you like museums then beamish museum is great. It's an open air museum so has like a town square (with like a bakey, sweet shop, bank, dentists etc), school, mine, and lots of old transport like old buses and trams all set at various times from the 1800s to 1950s. It's one of my favourite museums i've ever been to but very glad it's just on my doorstep. Not sure how you'd get there if you didnt have a car though, maybe there are buses that go there from newcastle.

Having said that I do live in Northumberland and the beauty of Newcastle as a City it will take you around 15-20 mins and your at the coast and if your travelling North in around 30-45mins you can be in the countryside with some spectacular scenery so maybe the next time you visit hire a car and travel up the A1 along the coastline and maybe visit Morpeth, Alnwick,Craster, seahouses & Bamburgh (castle) just a thought and a change of scenery. 👍 Up the Toon Army 🖤🤍🖤🤍 and your Girlfriend/ Partner when she says Geordies is very cute you make a lovely couple.
