Birmingham, the second largest city of
England has undergone a complete image makeover and is now a vibrant,
jovial and cultural potboiler of the nation. It is the very place, where
the Industrial Revolution was conceived and also the world's first
steam engine, invented by James Watt, and was commenced here in the
honor of the Black Country. Today, this is a bustling metropolitan full
of life and character. Go for any car hire in Birmingham and get lost in the festive season of this city.
This city is a splendid blend of glorious past and modern era,
thereby rendering diverse sight-seeing options. The city had a different
scenario two centuries ago, when the city was struggling hard to get
through the tough times during the revolutional era. It was this period,
when the town was secretly preparing itself to enter into a new era.
The city's prominent landmarks still clearly reveal the historical as
well as political significance of this town. The Birmingham International Airport
is situated on the outskirts of the town in Solihull and is just 8
miles away from the city center. The urbane is well connected with each
other by its excellent public transit system, including trains, metro,
coach, trams, buses, taxis and water buses. I would still recommend you
to go for car hire in UK,
which is a great conveyance option, surpassing all other modes of
transport. The Barber Institute of Fine Arts is a must-see attraction,
exhibiting art pieces by legendary painters such as Bellini, Bruegel,
Botticelli, Canaletto, Gainsborough, Delacroix, Gauguin, Murillo,
Renoir, Guardi, Rubens, Turner, Van Gogh, and Whistler.

Cricket Ground. A free 5 km park-run event is held on every Saturday
