Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery

Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery (BMAG) is the largest local authority museum service in England.

If you ever read the news, you should be aware that pieces of Anglo Saxon gold hoard were found in the field of Staffordshire and soon been kept and displayed in Birmingham Museum.

Initially, the treasures are to move to the London Museum, but after the councils received enough donations from the public, the UK's largest haul of Anglo-Saxon treasures are able to be remain in West Midlands region.

There are plenty of arts ranges from the 10th century up to 20th century. Picture above is an example of the 14th century art gallery.

This is a grand piano. My first time seeing such an old piano. At first I thought it was a table or something.

There are local histories of Birmingham city as well. It tells about how Bullring was earlier and how it leads to reformation.


p/s: Yes, there are mummies in the museum. A real mummy!

A day before I left Birmingham to Nottingham, we had dinner in Frankie & Benny's.

I ordered a pork chop dish as I have never really try one before. Although I have seen many back then. :P It was pretty good and worth your penny.

A trip to Birmingham is never complete, unless a picture with my brother here.

Lastly, this is Henry. He is well-known vacuum cleaner here in England. Almost every household has a 'Henry'. =)
