The many aspects of science come to life in a truly fun and interactive way at Birmingham's McWane Science Center. Plenty of interactive exhibits encourage visitors to reach out and touch while offering a close-up view of some of the world's most fascinating scientific principles. The museum houses an amazing collection of dinosaur fossils, an aquarium filled with colorful fish, and a multi-tiered playground. And don't forget to check out a science-themed or Hollywood hit feature at the center's IMAX theater.
The whole family will enjoy visiting "the friendliest house in the south" when you bring them to Birmingham's Vestavia Bowl Family Fun Center. This is a state-of-the-art bowling facility that takes great pride in being an excellent family-friendly attraction. In addition to being smoke-free, it also features electronic scoring, a surprisingly large arcade, concessions and much more. There are also league nights, a pro shop on site, and leagues for younger bowlers. The facility is also available for parties and corporate functions.
See some of the earth's most amazing natural beauty from the inside out when you visit the Rickwood Caverns. Located in western Blount County, it contains some of the most massive and visually arresting underground formations in the state. If you visit during the summer, you can even go for a dip in the swimming pool and enjoy a ride on the miniature train. Year-round camping is available.
