In 2 weeks time i will have a couple of hours to spend in Manchester - 10-12 on the Sunday morning.

I'm thinking of either visiting the Lowry gallery, or the city one.

I'll be staying in the Salford Quays area, so the Lowry will be handy but looks like the tram would get me to the centre very easily if I want.

Which would you choose and why?

Other suggestions welcome!

It depends how much you like Lowry, if you’re at Salford Quays you could do the Lowry and the Imperial War Museum North if you’re not a fan then like you say you can hop on a tram. If it was me I’d go to the Museum of Science and Industry

If you are at Salford Quays and only have a couple of hours I’d say go to the Lowry. Think it opens at 11am on a Sunday but the Imperial War Museum over the canal opens earlier. I’ve stayed at the Quays before, at the Holiday Inn Express, and it’s a nice area to have a walk around, if you get some decent weather. Manchester City Centre is about 10-15 minutes away by tram.

Have a good trip

Cheers
Clive

It all depends on what type of art you like. However, the Lowry only opens at 11am on a Sunday, whereas the Manchester City Art Gallery opens at 10am on a Sunday.
