Manchester metro -- Urbis, big wheel?

[Tha-Flash]

If I get off the Met at Piccadilly gardens, where do I go to get to the big wheel? Manchester eye thing.

Also, how far is walk from the Met to the big wheel?

From Piccadilly Gardens, simply 'follow your nose' (and the crowds) towards the central shopping area. When you come to the Arndale Centre (on your right) keep walking straight ahead. This will take you to Exchange Square, where the Wheel of Manchester is located.

Information about the Wheel of Manchester is here. If you click the 'View Map' link, Piccadilly Gardens can be found at the bottom right of the map:

Your question also refers to Urbis, which is a separate attraction, located in the Cathedral Gardens next to Victoria Station:

Really really easy to find. Piccadilly gardens is basically at the top of one of the main shopping streets, Market street. It's only a couple of minutes walk away, Just walk down market street, passing Debenhams, the side of Primark, past hmv and the arndale (where this bit is all pedestrianised) past the big boots on your left where you'll then see Marks and Spencers, turn right and you'll see it there.
