Once upon a 'Tyne'. Newcastle Upon Tyne, England

Nestled on the banks of the River Tyne, Newcastle Upon Tyne's story is one of transformation. Amongst its cobbled streets and historic buildings lies a treasure trove of tales. The city started life as Pons Aelius, a Roman settlement. It was on this site that the Norman fortress that gave the city its name was built. During the Middle Ages, the city was an important trading power, while during Victorian age, its shipbuilding and engineering works made Newcastle a vital part of the Industrial Revolution.

Fast forward to the present day, and you'll find a city reborn, evident in this picture of the redeveloped Gateshead Quayside. This once-industrial heartland now pulsates with cultural life. Its once-smoky skyline replaced by the gleaming curves of The Sage Gateshead and the engineering marvel of the Millennium Bridge, nicknamed 'the Winking Eye' for its design. With its rich history, vibrant culture and warm Geordie hospitality, Newcastle Upon Tyne is a city waiting to be explored.
