Where in Manchester is Coronation Street filmed?

Is Coronation Street set in Manchester?

From 1960 until 1968, the complete set of Coronation Street (house interiors and exteriors) was erected inside one of Granada Television’s studios in central Manchester, with the houses reduced to three-quarters scale. In 1967, Granada Television made the decision to build an outside set.

Can you walk around Media City?

Can you still visit Coronation Street?
