Bristol Introduction Walking Tour (Self Guided), Bristol
A historical city in the southwest of England, Bristol was founded around the year 1000 AD. Predating the settlement at the confluence of the Frome and Avon rivers were the Iron Age hillforts and Roman villas.
The name "Bristol" evolved from the Old English "Brycgstow", which means 鈥渢he place at the bridge鈥�. Its current form emerged through the tendency of the local dialect to add the sound "L" to the words ending in a neutral vowel.
Bristol received a royal charter in 1155 and historically thrived as a major English city, especially between the 13th and 18th centuries when it ranked among the top three in tax receipts, after London. The city played a pivotal role in early exploration voyages to the New World, including John Cabot's historic sailing in 1497. However, Bristol's prosperity was intertwined with the dark legacy of the trans-Atlantic slave trade, from 1700 to 1807.
In the 19th century, the city faced challenges, including competition from Liverpool and the abolition of the slave trade. Nonetheless, its population grew rapidly, leading to the development of suburbs and architectural diversity. Bristol underwent significant changes in the 20th century, marked by industrial developments, World War II destruction, urban transformation, and transportation network expansion.
Today, Bristol is a forward-looking location that learns from its past. Confronting its historical ties to the slave trade, the city saw the removal of a contentious statue of the locally-born slave trader Edward Colston, in 2020, sparking crucial discussions about its past and future. Lately, thanks to its environmental advancements and recycling program, Bristol has been ranked as the most sustainable city in Great Britain.
One of its most iconic landmarks, the 12th-century Bristol Cathedral, is a masterpiece of Gothic architecture.
For lovers of contemporary art, Bristol is renowned as the hometown of Banksy, a world-famous street artist, whose works are a thought-provoking and satirical commentary on society. Art enthusiasts can also explore the Bristol City Museum & Art Gallery, which houses an extensive collection of art and artifacts.
Also, you can climb the 105-foot (32-meter) Cabot Tower for panoramic views of the city, or step into history at Llandoger Trow, an old pub dating back to 1664, which, they say, inspired Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island."
Finally, one shouldn't miss the opportunity to explore Bristol Harbourside, where the city's maritime history comes alive.
To embrace the cultural richness of Bristol in its diversity, seize the opportunity and embark on this self-guided journey. The presented here notable locations will tell you a lot!

1) Bristol Cathedral (must see)
Bristol Cathedral is a Church of England cathedral that was founded in 1140. The original church, Saint Augustine's Abby, was completed in 1148, though little of this structure remains in place.
The current building was constructed between the years 1220 and 1877. Each phase of building fell under a different abbot and a different architect, which is why the architectural styles are so varied. Different components of Bristol Cathedral are designed in the Norman, Gothic and Gothic Revival architectural styles.
Among the many notable features of Bristol Cathedral are the stained glass windows. Many of the windows were replaced in the 1800s though some were replaced after the Bristol Blitz during World War II and other features date as far back as the 14th century.
The cathedral has a number of monuments, most of which are dedicated to abbots and bishops. Also of interest to most tourists is the organ, which was built in 1685 by Renatus Harris.
Visitors are welcome to tour the cathedral during its open hours. It is open from noon to 1 PM Tuesday through Saturday and during daily prayer, Eucharist and evensong.

2) Banksy - Well Hung Lover
Well Hung Lover, aka Love Cheat, is a stenciled graffiti depicting an adulterous couple: a suited man on the left, and a woman in lingerie on the right, touching his shoulder. The suited man is the woman's husband, and, suspecting her of having an extramarital affair with the naked man hanging from a windowsill by his right arm (his left arm covering his genitals), is looking out of the window to search for him.
Banksy suitably painted this provocative piece 鈥� showing him at his finest, playing on words to his heart鈥檚 content 鈥� on the side of a building that used to be a sexual health clinic on Frogmore Street. Being approximately 5 meters (16 feet) above street level, in order to get to the appropriate height and maintain the mural's secrecy whilst creating it, scaffolding had to be erected, covered with tarpaulin. After three days, the City Council removed the scaffolding and discovered the artwork.
The clinic has since relocated, but the mural is still in place despite the Council's policy to crack down on graffiti. When the Council bought the building from the member of the band Massive Attack who had commissioned the piece, it surveyed the people of Bristol, 97% of whom voted for keeping the graffiti in view, as it "brightened up" the area. The retrospective permission granted for the mural thus made it the first legal piece of street art in the UK.
Well Hung Lover is a dedication to the insolent attitude of Bristol. Unfortunately, it was damaged by paintball attacks, but 鈥� hey 鈥� that鈥檚 part of the game, innit!

7) The Red Lodge Museum
The Red Lodge Museum is a historic house museum in Bristol. It was built in 1580 for John Yonge as a lodge for a Great House, which once stood on the site of the present Colston Hall. James Cowles Prichard wrote The Natural History of Man while living at The Red Lodge from 1827.
It has had several uses in its past, including the country's first girls' reform school. This was set up in 1854 by Mary Carpenter, with the financial help of the poet Lord Byron's widow, who bought the Red Lodge in 1854. The Red Lodge was used as a reform school until 1917.
In the 1920s the site was also the home of the Bristol Savages, who met in a barn-like wigwam built in the garden while the rest of the building belonged to Bristol City Council. Today the building is a branch of Bristol Museum & Art Gallery, along with The Georgian House Museum, Blaise Castle House Museum, Kings Weston Roman Villa and M Shed.
The seven rooms tell the history of the building. The Tudor period is represented by the Great and Small Oak rooms and a bedroom.

8) Christmas Steps
The street was originally called Queene Street after the 1574 visit of Queen Elizabeth 1st to Bristol. It became Christmas Steps in the mid-19th century. This was probably due to being next door to Christmas Street. An alternative less likely theory is that it is based on the nativity scene found in a stained glass window of The Chapel of the Three Kings of Cologne, which stands at the top of the steps.
In the 17th century, after 1669, the steps are also believed to have been called Lunsford's Stairs for a short period, in honor of a Cavalier officer Colonel Henry Lunsford who was shot through the heart in the street during the first siege of Bristol in 1643 during the English Civil War.
The steep-slanted steps were constructed in September 1669 and were paid for by wealthy wine merchant, Jonathan Blackwell. The street features an abundance of unique shops, galleries, potteries, makers of dresses and shoes, musical instruments, sweet shops, restaurants and much more. The song "Christmas Steps" by Mogwai is named after the street.

Queen Square is a public green space in Bristol. It was originally established in 1699 and named in honor of Queen Anne. It was conveniently by the harbor, which led to its popularity with local merchants.

It became the location of a double highway, or carriageway, in the early 20th century. There were an estimated 20,000 vehicles driving through the middle of Queen Square every day by 1991.
In 1999, the city chose to divert traffic in order to restore the square to its former glory. It is now a popular tourist destination that receives about 1.6 million unique visitors per year. Within the square is a statue of William III that was erected in 1736. The square is surrounded by a number of buildings that were constructed in the 18th century.
