Newcastle was founded by the Romans as a fortress on Hadrian's Wall, which was constructed to repel the attacks by Scottish tribes. The city's full name is Newcastle upon Tyne, to distinguish it from two other cities with the same name. The logo of the city is the Tyne Bridge, which connects Newcastle to Gateshead. It is a compact and attractive city, which is known for its nightlife and cultural events. The Rough Guide to Britain calls Newcastle’s nightlife one of Great Britain's main tourist attractions!
The city has a population of 250,000, but in the urban area around Newcastle live almost one million people. A Newcastle resident is also called a Geordie. Where this title comes from is unknown, but according to some people it refers to the city's loyalty to King George II.
Newcastle is on the north bank of the River Tyne (Gateshead is located on the south bank), in the northeast of England, near the border with Scotland.
During the Industrial Revolution, Newcastle developed itself as the center of the coal mines. There were also big shipyards along the lower reaches of the Tyne. With the disappearance of these heavy industries Newcastle fell into disrepair, but the city has been recovering slowly.

Furthermore Newcastle has evolved into a science center, specialized in the field of biotechnology.
