Bristol delivers character, history and modern energy in a distinctive urban setting.

Bristol emerged as one of England’s most important ports during the medieval and early modern periods, trading with Europe, the Americas and beyond. The city later became associated with pioneering engineering, notably through the work of Isambard Kingdom Brunel.

Following industrial decline, Bristol reinvented itself through regeneration of its harbour areas and investment in culture and innovation. Today, it stands as one of England’s most forward-looking historic cities.
