What's hidden in a low-key treasure city? Let's see!

Visit 🆔 : Bullring & Grand Central Birmingham (Selfridges /Debenham) shopping centre

Useful information 📮 :

1️⃣Bullring & Grand Central Birmingham, the largest city centre shopping centre in the English city of Birmingham, has an eerie exterior that resembles a large bullring and was voted the ugliest building in the UK one year. There is an iconic cow at the entrance of the mall, which constantly updates its clothes with the changes of different festivals and eras.

The largest city shopping centre in the UK, the equivalent of 26 football pitches and a Birmingham landmark, the Bullring contains two major department stores Debenhams and Selfridges and more than 100 branded boutiques.

2️⃣ There are jewelry, watches, fashion brands, outdoor goods, electronic products and so on in this shopping center. I remember seeing Vivienne Westwood's clothes here before hanging on a bunch of shelves of various brands like clothes in the supermarket, which cannot be a single room in China...

3️⃣ There is also Selfridges, an upmarket department store, and Debenham, a more affordable department store, as well as holiday markets.

4️⃣ There are several Chinese restaurants around the mall, including buffets (not as good as ordinary home-cooked restaurants in China) and Sichuan food (good taste and strong prices, you might as well buy your own food in a Chinese supermarket).

5️⃣ Sir Edward Burne Jones (1833-1898) was an English painter, book illustrator and designer of stained glass and mosaics. He was born in Birmingham and studied at Oxford University. Burne-jones was deeply admired by later aesthetes and decadents, among which the important reasons were his contempt for reality and antipathy to materialism.

He rarely even sketched outdoors, and his experience studying religious spirituality in the seminary made him a master of "spiritual landscapes." It is said that on April 10, 1941, the Bishop of Birmingham urgently ordered the removal and removal of this large stained glass, and that night, a German air raid destroyed all the remaining glass in St. Martin's Church.
