Newcastle Castle gives the city its name, but its heart during the industrial era was always Quayside, which now houses a modern centre for arts and culture. The Tyne Bridge has a unique design and connects the city to Gateshead. Hadrian’s Wall is a defensive wall built during the time of the Roman Empire. Newcastle Cathedral is a stunning example of medieval architecture. Visiting the lively alternative districts of Ouseburn and Jesmond is an experience not to be missed if you visit Newcastle.
