Exploration & Discovery

It's an odd truth that while you may never properly explore the tourist and historical attractions of the area where you grew up, when you become resident in a new location you can quickly become far more knowledgeable about a place's sights and highlights than the locals - not least because you often end up showing visiting friends and family around your adopted home!

Indoors and out

Are you curious to find out more about your region? AngloINFO has lots of information to help you make your own discoveries. Why not browse through the Entertainment & Arts category of The AngloFILE, AngloINFO's business and service directory, where you'll find local museums and monuments, and art galleries to visit. 

The INFOrmation Page on Visiting Museums & Monuments explains available discount passes, and days when museum and gallery entry is free.

Now, during the off season, is a good time to explore the region in peace and make the most of it. The Travel & Tourism category has a section dedicated to places to visit (see Days Out: Trips & Tours), while the INFOrmation Page covering Local Tourism Notes points you to highlights of the region.

• Don't forget that the What's On Guide can help you find events and exhibitions that are on right now.

And, finally, you can use the Entertainment Forum to ask fellow locals for suggestions on "must see" locations. Happy exploring!
