Why choose a Birmingham weekend break or staycation?
Located in the heart of England, Birmingham is a fascinating city with a history dating back to the 6th century. Chock full of activities, shopping, restaurants, museums, galleries, and a unique vibe, Birmingham is the ideal choice for a unique city break, whatever the occasion.
Culture vultures won't want to miss St. Philip's Cathedral. This incredible building is an architectural wonder, as it's one of the few English baroque-style churches. You won't be able to stop staring at the amazing ceiling, the dramatic columns, and the beautiful stained-glass windows. Another building to add to your list is the Jacobean Aston Hall. The display rooms are packed with tidbits from the house's history and the pretty gardens are ideal for a relaxing stroll.
For more culture, head to the Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery. The galleries are filled with impressive art and collections from Anglo-Saxon gold and Egyptian mummies to dinosaur bones and fossils to Indian Bronze statues.
Want to treat yourself to a few new bits? The Bullring with its famous bubble facade is a hive of activity and excellent shopping. You'll want to visit the iconic Selfridges and indulge in the brilliant food hall.
If you're travelling to Birmingham with the kids, you'll find loads of top family-friendly attractions to keep them entertained. Get up close with marine creatures at the Sealife Centre and all kinds of other animals at Birmingham Wildlife Conservation Park.
Do you have a sweet tooth? Of course you do! Then a trip to Cadbury's World is a must. Don't forget to treat yourself to some tasty chocolate at the gift shop to take home with you. Let their imaginations run wild at the brilliant Thinktank Science Museum, or get a taste of life as a Brummie from the 1840s to the 1970s at Birmingham Back to Backs.
For an epic night out, head over to the Gas Street Basin. This was the centre of England's canal system, but today, it's the place to be for a fun evening in the city. There are lots of trendy bars, delicious restaurants, and pretty views for a late-night walk.
If you need a break from the bustle of the city, spend a few hours wandering around the idyllic Birmingham Botanical Gardens. These stunning gardens have four glasshouses filled with all types of flora, huge expanses of lawns and plenty of tropical plants from all over the world.
