Birmingham

Located in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, Birmingham boasts a metropolitan population of a little over 1 million people. Founded in 1871 as a steel-making center, it exploded onto the map almost overnight, quickly growing into Alabama's largest city and thus earning the nickname of "The Magic City." Today, it is a medical and financial center, as well as a cultural and heritage destination. Its vast selection of tourism attractions includes the Alabama Sports Hall of Fame, the Birmingham Museum of Art, Birmingham Civil Rights Institute, Alabama Jazz Hall of Fame, Southern Museum of Flight, Vulcan Park, McWane Center, Alabama Adventure Theme Park and the Birmingham Zoo, the state's largest. The city is also famous for its beautiful golf courses, year-round calendar of entertainment, fabulous shopping and world-class dining.
