Newcastle upon Tyne – or simply Newcastle as it is most commonly referred to – is one of the most iconic cities in Britain, famous for its industrial heritage, eponymous brown ale, popular nightlife and distinct regional Geordie dialect.

What is good about Newcastle upon Tyne?

Newcastle is the smallest big city in the world! It is so accessible, you can walk across it in 15 minutes but, as you would expect being the capital of North East England, it has everything you would expect of a major European regional capital city: culture, heritage, great night life and fabulous retail.
