Timeline

    Ye Olde White Harte

    Grab a coffee and a pastry. The upstairs plotting parlor is a historic touch, but the ground floor is perfect for a quick start.

  2. 15:25

    Ferens Art Gallery

    Walk to the Ferens Art Gallery. The free entry makes it easy to spend an hour browsing the Dutch and Flemish masters while the light is still good.

  3. 16:00

    Ye Olde White Harte

    Head back to Ye Olde White Harte. Order a pint and settle in. This is the moment the sun dips below the horizon, casting that final golden glow.
