| Synopsis: |
"The Rabbit Guide to Birmingham" is the guide for the 23 million visitors that visit the UK's second most visited city each year. In recent years, Birmingham has undergone a renaissance - transforming itself into a city that boasts one of the world's most acclaimed concert halls, Europe's busiest exhibition centre, a new and magnificent Bullring shopping centre (incorporating the remarkable Selfridges building) as well as a great nightlife and rejuvenated canals. With more than 400 full colour photographs, maps of the city centre, outer city and the surrounding region, the guide also includes invaluable sections on the city centre's five quarters; gazetteers to shopping, museums, galleries, parks, cathedrals, eating and nightlife; features on the National Exhibition Centre and International Convention Centre, Birmingham as a business city, and a guide to Birmingham's canals and waterways. "The Rabbit Guide to Birmingham", the first in a series of proposed guides to cities hitherto unrecognised by other guidebook publishers, is an invaluable guide for visitors to Birmingham - as well as those who live and work there. |
