View of Bristol's Colourful Houses

This is a perfect spot to view a row of Bristol's iconic colourful houses.

The exact origins of the colourful houses in the Bristol neighborhood remain uncertain, but one theory suggests that sailors returning from sea painted their homes for maritime purposes.

SS Great Britain

Highlight • Monument

From 1845 to 1854, the SS Great Britain was the largest and most technologically advanced passenger ship on the planet. Designed by the great engineer Isambard Kingdom Brunel, it was the first ship of its size to combine iron construction with a screw propeller.

Today, the ship is a fantastic museum where you can learn all about its history and about Brunel. There's also a great coffee shop here, if you're just passing by.

Pero's Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

Connecting the cobbled streets of the Old City to the modern bars, restaurants, museums and attractions around Millenium Square, Pero's Bridge is an important link in the city. This pedestrian crossing also remembers Bristol's links to the Slave Trade and is named in honour of Pero Jones, an enslaved African who lived in Bristol.

The crossing is a trendy place for lovers to display their affection by fixing padlocks in the railings. This practice has caused controversy, as many feel this doesn't respect Pero Jones' memory.

Banksy – Well Hung Lover Mural

Highlight • Historical Site

Terrible when a couple of chaotic people intentionally destroy works of art. Unfortunately, there are a few additional splashes of color that don't belong there.
