A Travel Video comes on you tube to show to foreign visitors and British people alike what Birmingham and many other cities have to offer, and all you get is a load of crap off small minded people about knife crime and shavs, that Birmingham is dull and ugly like the rest of the West Midlands and Warwickshire, nothing to do and the people are boring, well I do not think people who go on about the Second City and it's neighbours know any thing about this area or have ever visited it, firstly Birmingham is a beautiful modern city centre with the most Michelin star registered restaurants outside London,it is hosting the commonwealth games in 2022, it has the NEC, HQ of Sea world, Cadbury world, It's world famous Gold quarter, more miles of canals than Venice,modern shopping centres loads of night life, beautiful parks, then around its neighbouring areas there is Stratford on Avon, Warwick Castle, Severn Valley Railway, West Midlands Safari Park, Banbury, Dudley Zoo and the Black Country Museum these are just a few of the diverse places of interest that Birmingham, West Midlands and Warwickshire has to offer, what it does not have is loads of crime and drugs as people keep saying it has no more than any other city in the world, so instead of sitting on your backsides and keep running Brum and its neighbours down with a load of crap of how boring we are, why don't you get on a Train, National Express Coach or in your Car and come visit and you will see how great Brum and its neighbouring towns and cities are and how friendly the Brummies and Midlander's are, believe me you will see a difference, sorry I am a proud Brummie and love Birmingham and defend it to the hilt, so unless people know more about our area except through Chinese whispers then why comment, if you are a Brummie making adverse comments of Brum, then why don't you just up sticks and move.
тЬи GOD BLESS BIRMINGHAM! Full of amazing diversity and vibrant life. PEACE AND MANY BLESSINGS TO THE PEOPLE WHO MAKE AND CONTRIBUTE TO THIS WONDERFUL CITY! ЁЯЩПтЭгя╕ПЁЯЩП
IтАЩm from Mexico ЁЯЗ▓ЁЯЗ╜ but omg I love the UK ЁЯЗмЁЯЗз someday I will go, I think is the only country in the world that I want to visit so many times ЁЯШН
Good video but i think this is centred too much to the city centre. There are loads more places outside the city Centre such as; Moseley Village, Sutton Park which is one of the largest urban parks in Europe, Villa Park which is where the Football league, the first league competition was formed, Edgbaston Cricket Ground, one of Englands National grounds, The NEC, Resorts World, Soho House etc etc.
What a complete cock-up. Despite the title given to this production, the video obviously promoted the interests of the City of Birmingham only…so why bother including images of the City of Wolverhampton when they clearly have no place being there? For instance, since when was St. Peter's Collegiate Church located in Brum? It's laughable. Either make separate videos about the two neighbouring cities, or completely omit Wolverhampton's name on a video that is obviously and laughably erroneous. Folks from outside the West Midlands may know no better, and I don't expect them to…but Wulfrunians most certainly do.
All the brum haters in this video there is a way to prove the brum lovers that Birmingham is a terrible place. All what you have to do is type Birmingham UK in the search bar press enter, scroll down and most videos you'll find will relate to crime.
Hi Expedia, i watched all your videoes but i was eagerly waiting for one on india , there are so many beautiful places, cities in india which are rich in tradition ,culture and diversity love to see places from india soon
Birmingham has a lot of history and things to do. It is also developing heavily to get ready for the commonwealth games in 2022. It is also lot cheaper than other major cities in terms of hotels and bars. There are some issues with it but all cities have it. I love Birmingham (Wolverhampton not so much lol).
Lazy, lazy video production. Overuse of slider (Especially in one direction right to left), video not horizontal, colours are awful, all wide angle shot (No close ups).
Expedia is by far one of the best travel channels in YouTube. I have been following your amazing contents. Inspired by you, i started my own YouTube recently ЁЯСМЁЯТк
Some of the comments on here are disgraceful and have been made, I suspect, by people masquerading as Brummies. IтАЩve introduced people from Australia, Canada, South Africa and elsewhere to Birmingham and all have loved the city. Why? Because they came with enthusiasm and open minds, rather than to sneer and look for things to dislike.
As the video shows, Brum has many treasures, some more hidden than others. There are places not shown in this video, including the Town Hall, Centenary Square, St PaulтАЩs Square, Ikon Gallery, the Barber Institute, Cannon Hill Park and the Botanical Gardens. The German Christmas Markets are rightly renowned. The city has some fabulous pubs and the gastro scene is buzzing. However, BrumтАЩs greatest treasure is probably its people, who are warm, funny and down-to-earth; the perfect antidote to LondonтАЩs bolshiness.
Brum is not perfect. The skyline is still quite brutalist, the ring roads are still chock-a-block with traffic and the city has some run-down areas. This is changing though. The city plays host to the Commonwealth Games in 2022 and some of the less pristine areas of the city centre are undergoing a renaissance. Skyscrapers are rising, warehouses are being converted and the metro system is being extended, with new lines planned. One of these lines will take you to the Black Country Living Museum, setting for some of Peaky BlindersтАШ most atmospheric scenes.
So yes, ignore the trolls and the snipes of the London media. Birmingham is a proper city with plenty to offer. Come and see for yourselves.
After London and the Liverpool docks, Birmingham was the most bombed city during WW2. Hence why it needed to rebuild quickly after the war finished. It had to, out of necessity, build with little consideration to form and function and in the process created swathes of concrete buildings etc to try to rebuild itself. Got the reputation of being a concrete jungle. However if people care to actually look around it still has remarkable buildings old and new and probably is now the best city in the UK in successfully merging the past with the present.
