Liverpool has been named the fourth friendliest city in the world.

A new poll by readers of travel bible Rough Guide has revealed Scousers to be among the most welcoming to travellers.

The new results follow on from a survey earlier this year which saw Liverpool named number three in the world of the top destinations to visit.

Glasgow topped the 'most friendly' poll being noted for it's independence while Dublin was in second and Montreal third.

Rough Guide salutes Liverpool for its 'magnificent municipal and industrial buildings' plus its 'fine showing of British art in the celebrated Walker Art Gallery and Tate Liverpool.'

The magazine goes on to hail the 'multitude of exhibits in the terrific World Museum Liverpool, and a revitalized arts and nightlife urban quarter centred on FACT.'

Earlier this year, Liverpool was named fourth best tourist destination in UK in a TripAdvisor poll.
