I see from the comments that some have pointed out that much of what is in Birmingham has been missed and some of what is just outside included, so I'll add something else that is not quite Birmingham but near as damn it and that's the Black Country Museum and you could also mention the West Midlands Safari park and at a push Ironbridge Gorge.

@peterwilliamallen1063 Год назад

The Black Country Museum, West Midlands Safari Park and the Iron Bridge Gorge Museum have nothing to do with things touristy in Birmingham, all being at least 10 miles from the Birmingham Boundary with the Black Country Living Museum based in Dudley a different town, The West Midlands safari Park is between Kidderminster and Bewdley in Worcestershire and the Iron Bridge Gorge Museum is on the banks of the River Severn just outside Telford in Shropshire none of the tourist spots are in or near Birmingham

I once use to visit Birmingham at least twice year in the summer and near Xmas to do some shopping and have some relaxing nights dining out. But last year my wife and I nearly had our lives cut short. Won't go into too much detail because this could have happened in alot of cities across the UK. But what I will say its not the place it once was,and we found ourselves constantly looking over our shoulders. The atmosphere has certainly taken a dive and the city centre is full of undesirables to say the least. My brother was standing outside a kebab shop last year when a gang of youths pulled up and threatened him at gunpoint for his phone naturally he handed it over. The next day as he was leaving the town centre he was caught in traffic lights between 2 gangs hacking each other with machetes ! It's a pity really because I have very good memories of Birmingham,but fortunately I'm lucky to be here to still have those wonderful memories!

It's been modernised like many cities. However crime is terrible just like any other city!! The problem is there's not enough police. London seems to have all the police, so other cities / town's just become gang / crime hotspots especially at night!! You don't walk no city / town in UK now at night. Lived here whole life and i'm 30 and i wouldn't even do that in any city. No thankyou, you'd constantly be looking over shoulder😂😂. If you value your life get a uber👍. Goes for any city unless in london where there's more police than people😂😂😂😂.

It’s pronounced bir-min-um

@TomGB-81 3 года назад

Its always been Bir-ming-um, the Americans have always pronounced it as "haam" at the end. I'm 39 from Brum and Dudley, I've noticed a lot of the teens to early 20's pronouncing it how you spell it, I first noticed it a few years ago from people down south near London I just thought it was how they said it until I started hearing it recently locally in Brum. Similar thing with "route" I've noticed British people younger than 30ish pronounce it how the Americans and Australians pronounce it like "rauwt" instead of "root".

@peterwilliamallen1063 3 года назад

@@TomGB-81 Oh grow up, it is pronounced as it is spelt, Birming-ham, it is only pronounced Bir-ming-um by people in the Black Country ( Dudley), I am a Brummie of 66 years. The Yanks call it Birminghaam because they have a City called Birmingham in the deep South in the State of Alabama. So sorry it has not always been pronounced Bir-ming-um only as I said by Black Country People.

@peterwilliamallen1063 3 года назад

@@TomGB-81 I don't care who you work with, it is the way they talk and YAM YAMS come from the Black Country, (Dudley) and they talk in a deeper dialect to Brummies that sounds the same but is deeper, that is why when people on TV try to take off a Brummie Accent they actually take off a Black Country Accent, The name of my City is Birmingham, Birming-ham as it is spelt, so doesn't matter if they work for Birmingham City Council or Marks and Spencer or who they are, it is Birming-ham ( as in Ham Hock) Birmingham thats it, it is them not saying it correctly.
