Birmingham has 56 kilometres of canals (that’s more than Venice) and over 8,000 acres of parks and open space. This makes Birmingham one of the greenest cities in the UK. For over 250 years Birmingham’s Jewellery Quarter has been at the heart of jewellery design, and still today produces an estimated 40% of all UK jewellery. And let’s not forget chocolate, with the suburb of Bournville still home to Cadbury’s. You can smell it in the air!
