Manchester is a city in the north of England, nearby Liverpool.
We have no plan to visit yet (Fabrice did pass by once in 2017 in an attempt to get a Chinese visa).
Chetham's Library opened its doors nearly 350 years ago and is the oldest free public reference library in the English-speaking world. It holds more than 100,000 volumes of printed books as well as manuscript diaries, letters and deeds, prints and paintings. The library was also the meeting place of Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels when Marx visited Manchester in the summer of 1845. Here the pair would meet in a window seat and carry out research which ultimately led to their work on The Communist Manifesto.
