Discussion - Visiting a city in the UK
Discussion - Visiting a city in the UK
On the course this week, you have been learning about the city of Leicester. Leicester would be a fantastic place to visit for a weekend or to study as a student but there are many, many more cities in the UK.
Would you like to visit London, the capital of the UK? Or visit another capital city such as Edinburgh in Scotland, Cardiff in Wales or Belfast in Northern Ireland? There are many other big cities to visit, too. What about Manchester or Liverpool in the north west of England? These would be great cities to visit if you are a football fan or love great music? What about a city by the coast? You could visit Brighton on the south coast of England.
This discussion is all about different cities in the UK. Use the map below to find out where different cities are in the UK.
Discuss
Which city would you like to visit in the UK? Why?
Have you ever visited the UK? Which cities did you see? What did you enjoy?
Would you prefer to visit the UK for a holiday or to study and work?
If you studied or worked in the UK, what would you find difficult and what would you miss from your own city/country?
If you have any questions about cities in the UK, write them below and we will try our best to help you!

Hi Martin35
Thanks for your message and welcome to Premier Skills English.
You've scored lots of points since joining the website! Chelsea are doing very well at the moment, it would be a good time to watch them play.

May be the biggest difficult that I would find in the UK is the weather, I would miss the sun and the beach of my own city.

If I have another chance to visit London and spending some days there, I will go to all places at the end of each itinerary of the London tube. I still keep the 'Tube map' that I took it from the ticket office. It was a journey of just four hours in the Heart of London, a memorisable experience!

correct me - I still keep the 'Tube map' that I took it from the ticket office. In this sentence, I put the objectif 'Tube map' twice: (that) and (it).
I guess the correct sentence is : "I still keep the 'Tube map' that I took from the ticket office".

You're right. The relative pronoun 'that' is the object of the clause. When the relative pronoun is the object of the verb, we sometimes leave it out. I think I normally leave them out as they sound a bit formal. So you could say:
There's more information about relative clauses on LearnEnglish in the English Grammar section.
