These days more tourists are looking for new vacation destinations which have something not found elsewhere or, the absolute minimum something other than the common beach holiday. During the “Credit Crunch” large numbers of folk are, alarmingly coming to the conclusion that they have a much smaller budget for expenditure on a family holiday and are, frustratingly, forced to shaving corners to save cash. One way of doing this is to search out a less expensive destination. In the article below I introduce you to the British town of Birmingham. With the pound so weak against the dollar and euro Birmingham guest houses and hotels so much cheaper now.
Birmingham is a city in the county of England known as the West Midlands and the city’s residents are called “Brummies”. The accent of the Brummy sounds like many other northern English dialects and it is rather difficult to follow what is being spoken a struggle which is made worse if you have not heard it before. Thankfully the majority of people from Birmingham are extremely helpful, kind and polite and do their utmost to explain clearly so if necessary don’t be afraid to approach people about directions and help or help with Birmingham bed & breakfast accommodation.
Birmingham has a healthy selection of things to do and places to visit including some highly informative museums and galleries, for example the Museum of the Jewellery Quarter, Barber Institute of Fine Arts, Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery and the new Thinktank which is in the Eastside. The city also has a stunning number of square kilometers of parkland and woodland, Sutton Park being the largest having 2,400 acres making it the largest urban nature reserve in the whole of the UK and Europe.
The city possesses a vibrant and wide ranging nightlife with a large number restaurants, cafes, wine bars, bars and nightclubs. You will find the most popular in one of Birmingham’s squares, Victoria Square, Chamberlain Square, Centenary Square, Rotunda Square, St Martin’s Square, the historic Old Square at Corporation Street and the Gas Street Basin. Gas Street Basin is the central hub of Birmingham’s intricate canal network. The city has about thirty two miles of canals with between eight canals which were constructed in the 18th century and continued being used by local industries nearly until the end of the twentieth century. Nowadays the area has been cleaned up and is now a rather good visitor attraction.
For something a little different why not consider booking apartments in Birmingham. If you If you are currently planning a vacation in Birmingham you should be aware that the closest airport is approximately 8 miles distance from the the city center (just off the A45 and near the M42, Junction 6. You will will be able to find a respectable number of guest houses not too far from the airport.
