Imaginative ideas to get to know Preston
So, how can you get to know your new city? Well, why not consider:
- Finding the best food in Preston- Preston does have the usual chain of pubs and restaurants serving two for one deals. But it also has a great range of independent restaurants too, which all serve food at a great price for students. Luckily Blog Preston have a comprehensive round up and review, so if you want to explore Preston, why not hunt down some of the most popular independent restaurants? These are all within a 15 minute walk of the university campus too!
- Taking a walking tour- this is kind of like a pub crawl, without the pubs and the hangover, so you can actually remember where you’ve been! There are a couple of Preston heritage walking routes, that will help you find important Preston landmarks, so you’ll never get lost again. All you need to do is download the guide, and start exploring. You’ll be as confident as a local in no time!
- Taking the bus- you might not need to take the bus much in Preston, as the university campus is close to the city centre, and here at Let Pads, so are all our properties. But taking the bus can help you get to know areas that are further away, and this can be very helpful if your course involves work placements in industry. Why not take the 89 bus and check out Preston Marina?
