Birmingham
In central England, Birmingham is the beating heart of the country. And with a traceable history going back over 10,000 years, theres plenty to uncover. The industrial revolution created unheard-of wealth in the city, and the resulting Georgian and Victorian architecture mixes perfectly with modern masterpieces to create a vibrant, brilliant city. Catch the next musical movement at one of the smaller venues such as The Glee Club, The Sunflower Lounge or the brilliantly-named Actress and Bishop pub. Or if you prefer established acts, see some of the worlds biggest bands in the acronym-friendly NIA (National Indoor Arena), the NEC (National Exhibition Centre), The LG Arena, the HMV Institute or the O2 Academy. And if the thought of a mosh pit leaves you in cold sweats, perhaps the Birmingham Royal Ballet, the Birmingham Symphony Orchestra, or the Birmingham Museum and Arts Gallery might be more suitable? Must-see architectural gems include Aston Hall - a Jacobean mansion with parkland - and the National Trusts Back to Backs housing, a museum of authentic terraced housing untouched from the 1800s. Fans of J R R Tolkein might like to visit Sarehole Mill, reputedly the inspiration for Hobbiton in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, while lovers of authentic hot food should hit the citys famous Balti Triangle.
