About this place:

Birmingham is the largest of England's core cities, and is often considered to be the second city of the United Kingdom.

The city's reputation was forged as a powerhouse of the Industrial Revolution in Britain, a fact which led to Birmingham being known as "the workshop of the world" or the "city of a thousand trades". It is the fourth most visited city by foreign visitors in the UK.

People from Birmingham are known as 'Brummies', a term derived from the city's nickname of Brum.
