Two Manchester attractions named in top list of best things to do in world in 2023
The Guardian has named the Golden Mummies of Egypt exhibition at the soon-to-reopen Manchester Museum and the opening of Factory International amongst some of the best art and design shows to head to this year. The Manchester art attractions have been included in a list which features shows and exhibitions in cities spanning London, Amsterdam and New York.
The spectacular show of ancient Egyptian treasures isn't just about gold though, as it uses non-intrusive science to explore mummified bodies and heir elaborate wrappings. It will be displayed in the brand-new Exhibition Hall, on the ground floor, where the museum will host and tour shows that explore the 'richness of our world and our past, present and future'.
The Guardian article also nods to Factory International, Manchester's flagship arts centre, which is set to become a "landmark" venue for the city when it opens in June. Designed by the Rotterdam-based Office for Metropolitan Architecture in the form of a gigantic hangar, the £210m facility is being built on the former Granada TV Studios site and is anticipated to attract 1.15m visitors a year.
