I've been to Birmingham. It's actually pretty awesome. The list may have some duds but in my opinion Birmingham isn't one of them.

We're talking top 50 in the WORLD. Birmingham may be awesome, but along with pittsburgh, has no place on this list.

The good people of Birmingham & Pittsburgh would probably beg to differ.

Fun fact: Birmingham is known as the Pittsburgh of the South due to their steel industry in the 1900s

seriously? home love is different than being ignorant to the rest of the world. Have you ever been to basque country? barcelona? sicily? wine country in spain/portgual/france/italy? paris? lisbon/madrid? phillipines? bali? new zeleand? japan?: indonesian islands? california? turks and caicos? virgin islands? st lucia? barbados? colorado mountains? vancouver? banff? jasper park? i whole host of other countries and places I haven't even come close to mentioning?

Imagine telling some jamoke from basque country spain they should go visit pittsburgh and birmhingham alabama as top 15 places in the world.

Places to visit this year. Best and top are just superlatives for more clicks.

I'm not trying to convince you of anything. I've traveled to every continent barring Antarctica. Birmingham Alabama was still awesome
