The cultural, commercial, financial and historical hub of Nottingham, the lively city centre is buzzing with things to do. With the Old Market Square at its core, there are over 800 shops in the surrounding streets – in fact it was voted 5^th in Experian’s top 15 UK retail destinations. The city centre is divided into five ‘zones’ – each of which has its own distinctive tourist attractions and facilities. For fashionistas, head to the area around Bridlesmith Gate, and for those looking for something alternative head to Hockley Village in the Lace Market zone to discover the city’s up and coming Bohemian quarter.
