Nottingham stands as the regional capital of the East Midlands region. It is the 7th largest urban area within the UK. Nottingham has a lot of culture and a lot of history, which both attract a lot of attention and tourism to the area.
One aspect of history that finds its home within and around the area of Nottingham is the legend of Robin Hood. The famous character is said to have came to Nottingham to steal from the rich and give to the poor. His legend began in the middle ages when Robin Hood was said to have lived in Sherwood Forest, which extended from the north of Nottingham.
Still focusing on the middle ages, the area saw the founding of another brilliant tourist attraction to Nottingham, which is Medieval Nottingham Castle. The castle was founded by William the Conqueror and was classed as one of the country's finest strongholds. Sadly this castle no longer exists but it was restored to become an art gallery in the 19th century and has remained as an art gallery ever since. The castle now holds some great pieces of art and has panoramic views across the city.
The city also has some magnificent example of architecture, which are scattered all across the city with some of the most notable being Byron House, Alfred Waterhouse's and Watson Fothergill's buildings, Nottingham Council House and Queen Street as well as St Mary's based in the Lace Market.
Nottingham Council House overlooks the Old Market Square and can be seen for miles around thanks to its 200ft high dome, which rises above the city and is lit up at night. Inside the Council House is the Exchange Arcade, an upmarket shopping centre which houses many high class shops.
As well as its excellent shopping facilities the city is also home to some of the best entertainment venues around, such as its two large capacity theatres; Nottingham Playhouse and the Theatre Royal. If live music and is more of your idea of entertainment then you are in luck as the city has several music and performance venues such as the 2,500 capacity Nottingham Royal Concert Hall and the 9,500 capacity Nottingham Arena. If you are hoping for smaller venues then you will find them in the form of Rock City and The Rescue Rooms.
The list of attractions goes on and on meaning no matter what your interests are or what you are hoping to see tourism wise you will find them in this city.
One thing that you don't want to find yourself involved in however is a personal injury accident. Having an accident could happen in any part of the UK and Nottingham is no exception. A personal injury accident that occurs through no fault of your own could leave you facing serious injury that could severely affect the way in which you live your life. You could be left out of work or losing aspects of your independence all because of the negligence of another person.
If you do find yourself involved in an accident that was caused through no fault of your own then it is important that you speak to a personal injury lawyer as you may be entitled to claim for compensation.
