It's not well known in Korea, but the first city in England is London, and the second city is Birmingham. As I walk along the night view, I see the famous Selfridges Department Store (which was the motif of Apgujeong Galleria) and a church that's over 500 years old. #RestaurantExploration #SafeTravel #Cafe #MustSeeHistoricalPlaces #ExcitingParks #Outings #SummerCapture

fun learning experience

Birmingham has a great rooftop bar at the Redmond Hotel where the bartender is as great as the view at sunset. Sloss Furnace is a strong representation of Birminghams steel industry and working culture. It’s a great background for photography. The iconic Alabama Theater- if you think the outside with its color changing sign is cool try a tour of the inside or catch a show. #christmastrip

Birmingham botanical gardens is nothing short of a hidden paradise for nature enthusiasts like myself. This park is a true gem, offering a remarkable blend of natural beauty and recreational opportunities that left me utterly impressed. First and foremost, the park's natural setting is absolutely stunning. Towering trees provide ample shade, and the meandering pathways take you through dense, unspoiled woods. It's a place where you can truly connect with nature, hear the birdsong, and breathe in the fresh air. I especially appreciated the efforts to preserve the park's native flora and fauna, making it a haven for biodiversity. One of the standout features for me was the well-maintained trail system. Whether you're an avid hiker, a casual walker, or a runner, you'll find trails of varying lengths and difficulty levels to suit your preference. The signage along the trails is informative, helping you explore the park's diverse ecosystems. Birmingham botanical gardens also boasts an impressive array of wildlife. During my visit, I spotted rabbits, squirrels, and even a majestic red-tailed hawk soaring overhead. It's a haven for birdwatchers and nature photographers, with numerous observation points strategically placed throughout the park. For those interested in educational experiences, the park offers informative displays about the local flora and fauna, making it a fantastic spot for school trips or family outings. The well-kept picnic areas are perfect for enjoying a packed lunch amid nature's splendor. Cleanliness and facilities are top-notch, with clean restrooms and well-placed garbage bins. The park staff's dedication to maintaining its pristine condition is evident. In summary, Birmingham botanical gardens is a testament to the beauty of untouched nature within an urban landscape. Whether you seek solitude, a challenging hike, or a family-friendly day out, this park has it all. I wholeheartedly recommend it to nature lovers, hikers, and anyone looking to escape the city's hustle and bustle. It's a five-star natural retreat that will leave you in awe of the great outdoors.#garden #relaxing
