For some, this coastal city is synonymous with its Premier League football team, while for others (specifically students) it’s well-known for its Russell Group university.

Nowadays, locals and tourists flock to the city for its cultural, retail and commercial scene, as well as to visit one of its sprawling green spaces (Southampton Common spans a huge 300 acres).
