The unique experience you get from this gorgeous town can be captured whether you want to portray the relaxing, yet luxury atmosphere of southern Blackpool, or showcase the lavish surroundings.
Blackpool Tower
The promenade that surrounds the Blackpool Tower features breathtaking views and sights, as well as the tower itself. Located at the base of the promenade, the venue features a large entertainment and event complex. The stunning views you can get when visiting this landmark are abundant. Among the attractions in the area are the Comedy Carpet public art installation and the Tower itself. A visit to Coral Island’s scull also makes for an unforgettable experience.
Mary’s Shell
An exhibit, Mary’s Shell, is located on Cleverleys Beach near Blackpool, which displays an unusual, gigantic shell that can accommodate an intrigued individual. In this work of art, the artist used metal to depict the shape of an ocean wave and a shell. When the tide is low, Mary’s Shell becomes evident, and once the waves retreat enough, and the shell begins to emerge, you’ll eventually be able to climb inside for some breathtaking shots.
Central Pier
In addition to offering scenic views of the surrounding area, Blackpool’s Central Pier is a picturesque landmark in its own right. This historic structure still displays its vintage craftsmanship methods, which could give your Instagram feed a distinctly retro vibe. This long, thin pier stretches out farther than Blackpool Tower, and it is located just to the south of this iconic monument.
Rigby Road Tram Cemetery
Trams that once plied Blackpool’s extensive tram network can be found at the Rigby Road Tram Cemetery. You’ll have a lot of opportunities to acquire images of this somewhat haunting location when you visit it. There is something very emotional about seeing the little pieces of machinery scattered in the cemetery, especially when you manage to catch them in the right way. In one sense, the trams looking apathetic can be depressing, but at the same time, they illustrate how robust and well-connected the tram service was in its adolescence.
