Shopping Centre Opulence...

Visitors to Manchester's Trafford Centre are greeted by the opulent Great Hall and can stroll along over three miles of granite and marble boulevards. Home to over 200 shops with bars, restaurants, a multi-screen cinema and now a newly-opened Sea Life aquarium, there really is something for everyone. I'm not the centre's greatest fan and you certainly won't catch me in there with the crowds at weekends but a mid-week visit can be (almost) enjoyable.
