In more recent years there has been a move away from the usual seaside vacation in favour of something a little bit more unusual, such as a city break in an industrial town. During this time of economic downturn it is important to try to save cash where we can so many tourists are choosing to arrange their own vacations rather than going with a package deal. Visiting a city is often far cheaper than visiting a highly popular resort as it is often possible to find budget hotels not too far from first class five star hotels. Another way to save some cash is to visit a country where your local currency is stronger and with this in mind I wish to introduce you to the wonderful city of Birmingham in England, in the United Kingdom. The British pound is still rather weak against such currencies as the Euro and the Dollar so it makes it viable, now more than ever, to take a vacation in the UK and Birmingham is one of the most fascinating cities in England.
Birmingham has an excellent collection of places to visit and things to do including some highly informative and equally interesting museums and art galleries, for example the Barber Institute of Fine Arts and the Thinktank in the Eastside. The city of Birmingham also possesses a large number of square kilometres of parks and open spaces, Sutton Park being the largest with 2,400 acres making it the very largest urban nature reserve in the whole of Europe.
