Birmingham is a large, vibrant city formed by countless outstanding communities.  Known for its valuable resources (iron, coal and limestone to be exact) and due to rapid growth of the iron and steel industry in Birmingham during the Industrial Revolution, Birmingham was coined the  ‘Magic City’.  Magical it is.  

Nestled in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Birmingham has more sprawling green space per capita than any other city of its size in the US.  It is a wonderful and historic city, full of interesting places to see, things to do, and its cultural heritage surpasses many other popular cities its size. A medley of cultures and attitudes blend together with old Southern charm to create a beautiful and diverse city, full of interesting and educational attractions that are both inspiring, and unforgettable.  There is no doubt that Birmingham is a city the whole family can truly enjoy
