Bristol is an exciting and lively city which has just about everything to offer. It is a wonderful place to study and live. Its rich history combines with a modern and vibrant mix of cultural and social activities, making it a truly cosmopolitan and unforgettable city. Each year Bristol hosts an array of festivals and carnivals and offers a wide variety of places to visit and things to do.

Shopping in Bristol gives you plenty of options, with a mix of independent shops, outdoor markets and high street names. The Mall shopping centre, at Cribbs Causeway, just north of Bristol features over 150 shops, restaurants and cafés under one roof.

Bristol is also steeped in godly history. Among the greatest monuments to what can be accomplished through simple faith in God were the great orphanages sited on thirteen acres of ground in Ashley Down. Without making his wants known to man, but to God alone, George Müller received over £1,400,000 for the building and maintenance of these orphanages.

George Müller became famous as one of the greatest men of prayer known to history. In 1640 the first independent congregation that separated from the Church of England and Catholic Church was formed in Bristol.

In 1739 Methodist leader John Wesley visited the city to preach in his "New Room" which later became the world's first Methodist Church. This "New Room" is still used for services today and there is a small museum
which can be visited in the city centre.
