For over
200 years, Blackpool has been Britain's number-one holiday resort -
brash, noisy and unashamedly full of fun. Progress is Blackpool's
motto, and here we can see for ourselves the contrast between the
Edwardian resort and the modern one. Blackpool has been enjoyed by
the millions of visitors who come every year to sample the beach,
the fun fair, the Tower and the razz-ma-tazz of the famous Golden
Mile. Victorian and Edwardian postcards here reveal the Blackpool of
our great-great grandparents, set alongside specially taken views of
today's refurbished modern resort town setting itself to compete
against the rest of the world's holiday destinations. |
