One of the areas where major improvements are made in Birmingham, is the canal area. You can take a boat to see it, but it is also possible to follow the tow paths.
It is claimed that Birmingham has more canals than Venice. This might be true for the length of all canals combined and the fact that Birmingham is much bigger than the famous canal city, but Birmingham certainly does not have anything close to the romantic feel of Venice. Still, walking the towpaths and improved canalside quays has a certain charm. After visiting the inner city, this is a different story. Attractive bow-shaped bridges, long, narrow boats plying the canals cautiously, people walking the waterside, quiet peaceful corners all give something extra to the feel of this part of Birmingham.
