It’s difficult to explain what sets Birmingham apart from her like-size sisters---almost impossible really. People who visit Birmingham, as well as those who live there, swear they sense a vibe to the city that they don’t find elsewhere in their travels.
Birmingham is centre ring for Alabama’s attractions and entertainment. From Broadway shows, the Alabama Symphony Orchestra and other cultural events, to outlet mall shopping and the finest selection of antique stores in the region, Birmingham knows how to entertain.
Take a quilt and a picnic to Railroad Park in the heart of downtown and listen to Alabama music. Live music is the signature entertainment of the city. Visit the dozens of art galleries around the city for funk, fine and folk art treasures.
The city’s downtown buildings are a collection of Cinderella stories. Many early skyscrapers are now refurbished, dressed up and housing restaurants, law firms and luxury condos.
For all its small town charm, Birmingham is sophisticated, with a rich history of Italian, Lebanese, Greek, Asian, Hispanic and Eastern European immigrants, Birmingham benefits from the gifts of many backgrounds. The influences are all around and beautifully melded into the diversity of our Southern culture.
