As well as branches of some well known stores, the area contains a mix of smaller music, book and fashion shops aimed principally at young people.There are some very good restaurants and cafes catering for a variety of budgets making it easy to “refuel” if you are flagging. The tourist attractions in this area include Royal West of England Academy of Art and Bristol Museum and Art Gallery.
TOP TIP: Take a walk down Park Row from Park Street. Look up at the buildings on the left and see if you can spot the plaque dedicated to Mark Barraud owner of the dog 'Nipper'. Nipper's image was used to publicise the gramophone company which later became HMV (His Masters Voice).
