If you thought Sheffield was all about stainless steel then think again. Sheffield is the UK's fourth largest city and one of the greenest cities in Europe with gardens, parks and lots of wide open spaces and to top it all the Peak District National Park is on the doorstep. This vibrant city has a lively arts, crafts and culture scene and is home to the iconic Crucible Theatre. In fact Sheffield has the largest theatre complex outside London offering both in-house productions and touring shows. The Millenium Gallery is the city's premier place for art, craft and design showcasing Sheffield's amazing heritage alongside contemporary design. The Winter Garden is one of the largest temperate glasshouses to be built during the last hundred years in the UK. This impressive, multi-award-winning building houses a stunning collection of over 2,500 plants from around the world. Located in the centre of the UK, Sheffield is such an accessible city and, once there, getting around is fun if you hop on and off the super tram which takes you around the city and beyond. Why not hop on a super tram from the city centre and visit Meadowhall, one of Europe's largest shopping malls? Foodies will love the city with its great selection of independent restaurants, well known eateries and lots of coffee shops serving tempting freshly baked cakes and pastries.
