Birmingham university review

Sam G
star rating

 I suppose the main attractions of Birmingham are (apart from myself of course) Broad Street & Brindley Place - the place for all your bars, pubs (as totally distinct from "Bars") and clubs - lots of dancing to be had and a good mix of cheese with trendy so you could probably class the place as Trendy Cheese.

Take a peak at National Exhibition Centre (home of Clothes Show Live & Good Food show - you can see what my main priorities are!) & National Indoor Arena (home of the Gladiators - er, before they were axed).

Lots of shops all over the place too numerous to name-drop and a Chinese Quarter - restaurants (of course) mixed in with more bars and clubs....and pubs.A choice of theatres and The Symphony Hall for a bit of culture and then down to the Sea Life Centre which has plenty of fish and other sea life like seaweed and shells.

Jewellery Quarter - bit rough and clearly not the place for students on a tight budget either.

I expect I should add Birmingham City Football club in as a mention but would hardly put it in the "Sports" category.
