8. Birmingham Canals

What was once the primary transportation route for the many industries that operated in the region has now become the city’s biggest draw.

The canals in Birmingham have become the perfect place for romantic boat rides, leisurely walks along the water, a refreshing path for a morning run, or just the perfect location to have an evening drink at one of the many canal-side pubs and restaurants to wash away the daily grind.

For the slightly more adventurous, it is also possible to rent out a canal boat and take it out for a duration of your choice. Otherwise, for those wanting a more tranquil cruise, a number of hour long historical tours to dinner cruises run the route that can be a great way to see the city and the natural beauty that surrounds it.
