The wonders of Birmingham

As far as UK cities go, Birmingham is my favourite place. When I saw the Christmas markets go up I just had to take a visit. For me it is an hour and a half/ two hours away but it's worth it. 

The stalls were so lovely! Really well located all along the street outside the main shops so perfect to have a little shop and browse while seeing the market.

 

The part I was most looking forward to... a yummy Nutella crepe...  yes I know french but who can say no to a fresh crepe. 

Although it looks plain the inside is full of Nutella mmm...

The market takes you straight along to the Bullring which is a must must must if you're in the area. It's not to be missed. It's huge! 3 floors, a Selfridges, a Topshop, a Boots, Superdrugs you name it!

Once you're all shopped out, it's worth taking a little detour to see the canals, they're tucked away but so very pretty.

Take a walk through the central square with water features and more little Christmas stalls leading up to the canals.

 

You can walk right along the canals or over the bridges, it's so calming and my favourite part of the city. There's also tons of restaurants to sit alongside the canals.

Have you ever been? Let me know your favourite UK city for me to visit.
