Maps will be needed to get round Birmingham, some places (especially Birmingham city centre) will be quite confusing and as its so busy all the time its best to know where your going before you set out

Birmingham is a very multi-cultural city and you'll see things that are worth taking photos of! So bring a camera to capture some of them moments
|
Englands weather is usually crap! So bring an umberella with just incase. If you don't have one with you theres always some for sale for cheap enough

Well as it's always raining in Britain I would advise warm clothes. It's a good idea to bring gloves, scarf and some nice wolly socks!
Birmingham has hospitals, chemists everything so don't worry about falling ill you will be well taken care of!
As with anywhere take a camera it's always nice to actually have something really from happy memories.
Well as it's always freezing make sure you bring a coat especially if you go out! Leave a Comment

Bring whatever you like, but remember you have to carry it :-)
Best advice bring the most comfortable shoes you have, you will be doing a lot of walking .
Birmingham is normaly cold in winter, warm in summer, but always, always have an umbrella, it has been known to rain on just one side of the street here and be sunny on the other.
You can buy everything you need in the UK , but make sure you have enough prescription drugs with you to last, if you do not belong to the EU the Medical costs are high and a lot of meds can't be bought over the counter, if you are not sure go to

they have a lot of info there.
The UK can deal with any of your Photographic needs it may be a little more expensive than the US and Canada though.
There are a few campsite on the outskirts of Birmingham, but you wont really need bug spray in here.
Just bring lots of money, Birminhgam isn't as expensive as London, but there is a lot you can do for free. Leave a Comment

IF YOU WANT TO SPEND YOUR HOLIDAY IN ANGLESEY/NORTH WALES THEN BRING SPECIAL SHOES TO WALK IN THE MOUNTAINS AND CLIFFS.
IF YOU ARE INTENDING TO GO CYCLING THEN BRING YOUR MOUNTAINBIKE. Leave a Comment

Anything you can carry really, no type of bag is going to be restrictive for you.
Birmingham's climate is similar to elsewhere in the UK, so always bring something warm with you. Bring a smart set of clothes/shoes with you as there are some great places to go out, and a lot of them are pretty smart.
You should have no problems in finding everything that you want here, there are shops at every other turn.
Again, film, batteries etc. can be found everywhere, and it is all reasonably priced.
Definately bring an umbrella, a lot of the sights will involve a walk outdoors to get to them, and it is no fun if it is pouring with rain, as it so often is... Leave a Comment
