Bradford, Metropolitan borough in West Yorkshire, England
Bradford extends across valleys and hills, encompassing multiple towns including Shipley, Bingley, Keighley, and Ilkley within its administrative boundaries.
The city transformed from a small wool town into an industrial powerhouse during the 19th century, driven by access to coal, iron ore, and water resources.
Bradford received the designation as UNESCO City of Film in 2009, recognizing its contributions to cinema through production facilities, festivals, and the National Science and Media Museum.
The University of Bradford and Bradford College provide higher education opportunities to over 20,000 students across multiple academic disciplines and research programs.
The city contains more than 5,800 listed buildings, including Saltaire, a complete Victorian industrial village recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage site.
