It's Nice to Have you in Birmingham!
FREE!
Check out a lot of free attractions Birmingham has to offer.
Hands down my favorite free attraction. The gardens are open from sunrise to sunset and feature so many areas to enjoy nature. This is a local spot for professional photos...so bring a camera in case you want to take a new pic!

The art museum is absolutely free and a great option for a rainy day. The restaurant and kids area are closed due to the pandemic but the museum itself is definitely worth a visit.

City advice
Getting around
Uber and Lyft are your friends
While there is public transit in Birmingham, your best bet is to either rent a car or get a rideshare. Our listing is less than 10 minutes from most places in Birmingham so my recommendation is to catch an Uber if you dont have a car.
