If you Beatles lovers or if you are simply planning a trip to Liverpool, you cannot ignore this museum. There are so many symbolic places of the great English group in this city, but I think a stop at the museum is a must.
Britannia Vaults is home to the largest museum of the band, The beatles story. Here you enter and you are immediately catapulted into Liverpool in the 50s when the fateful meeting between John Lennon and Paul McCartney. The narrator of McCartney himself will drop you among the first chords of the Quarrymen group, the forerunner of the Beatles.
The interior is a succession of reconstructions, there is even one Matthew street completely redone and a miniature Cavern Club, but not so much, to then enter the most famous yellow submarine in history or get on the PanAm plane that took the 4 Beatles to America! Of course, passing through the Abbey Road studios where they are recording or to the clubs that saw them play in their early days, all meticulously reconstructed! L'audio guide it is also available in your language, with its 32 stations. Just outside the reconstructions begins the interactive area, then the one dedicated to each single Beatle and then only one dedicated to the image of John Lennon, with the white room perfectly reproduced, with the white piano in the center and the words of the famous song on the wall. flows in the background. Creepy.
Unmissable shop and Starbuck's inside, for a stop in front of a hot cappuccino or a chocolate. Then a photo of the three Unesco heritage buildings that, as a symbol of Liverpool, tower imposingly on the dock: the “three graces”: the Liver Building, the Cunard Building and the Port of Liverpool Building.
Walking through the museum you will pass through all the successes, and not only, of the group and in the blink of an eye you will arrive in London where the contract with George Martin was signed, then in the States to see the myth of the Beatles grow, finally the story of the definitive rupture of the musical group in 1970.
