Travelling to Manchester: My favourite and fastest route!

#myfavoriteroute Travelling between London and Manchester is very common due to their political, cultural, and economic importance. The best way to travel from London to Manchester is by train, with a journey time of just over 2 hours. This is significantly faster than driving, considering the traffic. The journey by car is typically around 4 hours. Buses are also available, but the journey is considerably longer (around 5 hours). Flying is an option, but considering travel to and from airports and check-in times, it's generally slower and less convenient than the train. Train is the best option because of speed, convenience, comfort, cost, and environmentally friendly. Being in Manchester, I suggest visiting the following iconic attractions: First, start your day at Etihad Stadium, then head to the National Football Museum. Next, visit the historic Manchester Cathedral. Afterwards, wander through Chinatown, and finally, explore the University of Manchester. Enjoy your trip.
