Birmingham – SEO
The British West Midlands city of Birmingham is the second largest in terms of population, after London. This famous industrial area is now more a commercial centre as well as a tourist destination, but vestiges of its earlier glory remain with car maker Jaguar and Cadbury of chocolate fame still in existence. The economy is mostly powered by the services sector led by banking and insurance – 2 of England’s largest banks Lloyds and Midlands (now part of HSBC) have its origins in the city. The Bullring shopping centre, House of Fraser department store, Selfridges, Debenhams and others give the city some of the best shopping experiences anywhere in the world. Football clubs Aston Villa and Birmingham City, the cricket grounds at Edgbaston, Aston and Birmingham Universities, 3 restaurants star rated by Michelin are other aspects that people relate to with in Birmingham. Not to forget the architectural and cultural heritage – the cathedrals and churches, theatres and museums. Well known individuals and groups include UB40, Duran Duran, Black Sabbath, Moody Blues, J R R Tolkien, Arthur Conan Doyle, Neville Chamberlain and Samuel Johnson, to name just a very small selection.
