"Visiting Birmingham: Head to the Library of Birmingham and take the lift up to the upper floors. You’ll find outdoor terraces and some of the best views across the whole city centre. Birmingham is also surprisingly easy to explore on foot for how huge it is. The Bullring, Digbeth, Broad Street and the canals are all actually pretty close together. The tram is perfect for reaching the Jewellery Quarter without adding too much walking."
