City Centre #Bristol
For those looking for short-term lets or serviced apartments in the City Centre, there’s nothing better than figuring out all the things to do in Bristol before you get there. The City Centre is bustling with shops, restaurants, bars, and cultural museums and galleries, but a trip wouldn’t be complete without a day or two in the very heart of the city.
There is so much stuffed into the City Centre – Bristol, that there are things to do when you visit Bristol that make sense! You need to explore the area, especially if you plan to stay in Bristol long term! With that in mind, let’s check out some of the things to do in Bristol that must be on your list.
Bristol Shopping Quarter - Cabot Circus
One of the most beautiful Georgian streets in Bristol is Park Street, with the best boutique shopping options alongside some of the funkiest bars and cafes. You'll also find the Bristol Museum & Art Museum here, which gives you the chance to soak up the culture after a delicious coffee and a slice of cake. Right at the top of Park Street is one of the most iconic Bristol areas: Cabot Tower. Bring a picnic to the base and enjoy a full day out! If you go back down the hill, you'll find one of the best Banksy artworks - Well Hung Lover. Ahem. Look across the road, and you'll see College Gree, which holds the Bristol Cathedral - another cultural wonder!

With secret alleys and a ton of fantastic architecture, you’re not going to be able to tear your eyes from your surroundings! Enjoy events like the Bristol Harbour Festival, which takes place every July.
