Manchester must be one of the most photogenic cities in the world.

From the cool, New York-style back streets of the Northern Quarter, to the dramatic skyline and picturesque parks, our city always looks good (although we are quite biased).

So it’s not surprising that dozens of photos celebrating everything about our city are uploaded every minute to the social media site – and shared with our own Manchester Evening News Instagram account which now has more than 40,000 followers.

But it’s that unique Manc way of looking at our city – that makes the photographs really stand out.

Our sunrises are pretty amazing

As are the sunsets

The skyline is breathtaking

And the architecture is incredible

Our back alleys aren’t bad either

Even the streets below have character

As do our commuters

And residents

 Let’s face it, Manchester is pretty fantastic

Even in the rain

But we’ve always known that

We’ve got a proud history…

Great people

 And cool pets

Even our statues have attitude

There really is no place like home
