City guide
Birmingham
Britain's second city trades on scale and reinvention rather than obvious prettiness: a dense grid of Victorian civic architecture, a rebuilt canal network longer than Venice's, and a Jewellery Quarter that still produces around 40% of the UK's jewellery after 250-plus years of craftsmanship. It's a genuinely multicultural, food-driven city - the balti belt is a Birmingham invention - more than a postcard destination.
