Heavy bombardments in the Second World War gave Birmingham the opportunity to modernize architecturally. While works are still underway, old and new buildings characterize the city.
Waking up an early bright Sunday morning in Birmingham drove me outside to explore this industrial city. I soon ended up on Victoria Square, the real city centre. On one side I saw the enormous Council House, a fountain of similar dimensions in front of it, and apart from the inevitable classical statue of Queen Victoria, also other modern statues. From here, streets radiate in several directions, and I decided to head towards St Philip Cathedral, a 18th century neoclassical building on Colmore Row.
