With more than 400 full color photographs, maps of the city center, outer city and the surrounding region, the guide also includes invaluable sections on the city center's five quarters; gazetteers to shopping, museums, galleries, parks, cathedrals, eating and nightlife; features on the National Exhibition Center and International Convention Center, Birmingham as a business city, and a guide to Birmingham's canals and waterways. The Rabbit Guide to Birmingham is an invaluable guide for visitors to Birmingham - as well as those who live and work there.
