If you are planning a weekend away in Birmingham there are lots of things you can do there from sight seeing to nightlife. Birmingham is the second biggest city in England. It is also the industrial city of England. There are several things to do in this city from relaxing like relaxing in modern furniture of the bars located in a beautiful canal that runs through Broad Street. Broad Street includes all top bars, clubs and casinos and probably is the best night life in Birmingham. There are also places like Mailbox and Arcadian where you will be enjoy night life but more bars and clubs are based in Broad Street.
Once you get to Birmingham don’t forget to visit the awesome chocolate factory. The factory is based in Bournville which is about 30 minutes away from town in car. Another option is to get there in a train from New Street Station in city centre. This is worthwhile if you are a chocolate lover. You will be able to see how chocolates are made and also taste unlimited samples. This is one of the best tourist attractions in Birmingham.
Birmingham also has a massive shopping attraction in the name of Bull ring. This was once one of the biggest shopping mall in Europe. The mall is shaped as a bull hence it is called bull ring. If you love shopping then this is the place to be on a Saturday afternoon, then you can walk to Broad Street for few drinks which is about 15 minutes walk from there. Bullring has all the top brand shops such as Selfridges, FCUK, Top shop, River Island, Debenhams, Marks & Spencer and many more. The interior decoration of the mall is very good and for seating it looks like they have arranged some club furniture to give it a cool and funky look. In the middle there is a seating area which includes reception furniture just to give it a classy but yet relaxing look.
