Birmingham Blog (History) - Visit Birmingham

October is the time of the year where we celebrate Black History Month. Through this period, we get the chance to hear and learn many different stories. Also, it is a fantastic opportunity to know and pay our respects to the men and women behind those stories.

One thing I missed the most while lockdowns were going on in England, was to visit the Library of Birmingham.

It is true that we can find beauty everywhere. Sometimes in obvious aspects like tangible monuments or breath-taking landscapes that cannot escape from our senses

I wanted to finish my experience at Birmingham Heritage Week 2021 with a special event, maybe doing something that I love but which I usually do not have the time or the resources to do it.

It’s not been that long since I last went to The Black Country Living Museum, but I was keen to return as there is so much to explore.  This time I was sans my kids which afforded me the opportunity to investigate some places that they were reticent to go in – cowards.
