Neighborhoods in Manchester
"Manchester has a small city center, but it’s packed with several smaller areas that all have their own distinct vibe. Chinatown is a network of side streets filled with the busiest Asian stores and eateries in town. It’s more pan-Asian than the name lets on though, so make sure to check out the Thai, Vietnamese, and Japanese spots too. The Gay Village, located just a five-minute walk from Chinatown, centers on Canal Street, which has long been the heart of Pride celebrations. Alternative nightclubs and parties for the LGBTQ community, including the popular Homoelectric and High Hoops nightclubs, have now found homes away from the Village, but the area remains buzzing every weekend with bars, clubs, and hotels. For mainstream international brands try the Arndale shopping center on Market Street, while designer names can be found in the high-end department stores in the redeveloped Shambles area." - MATADOR_NETWORK
