Gateshead Millennium Bridge	The Gateshead Millennium Bridge links the attractions on both sides of the River Tyne. It is a stunning pedestrian and cycle bridge and operates like the giant lid of an eye slowly opening, forming an arch under which ships can pass. It is a 'must see' piece of engineering and the first project at the heart of the new cultural quarter which includes luxury hotels, bars, restaurants, clubs, the BALTIC and a new Music Centre.
BALTIC is the major new international centre for contemporary art. The former Baltic Flour Mills, a 1950's grain warehouse, has been transformed into a leading international visual art space, one of the largest temporary art spaces in Europe. The BALTIC houses over 3000 sqm of art space in five galleries, artists' studios, a cinema/lecture space, a library and archive for the study of contemporary art, a bookshop and three different food and drink spaces including a Rooftop Restaurant with amazing views of Tyneside. Admission is FREE.	BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art
