A romantic date doesn't have to be elaborate. Sometimes, a stroll in the park and a relaxing picnic is the perfect way for the two of you to focus on each other while enjoying Birmingham's natural beauty. A great place to do that is Vulcan Park. The site's focal point is the largest cast-iron statue in the world and it was created for the 1904 St. Louis World's Fair. There are activities for kids and families, but the park is lush and expansive enough for you two to find a quiet out-of-the-way spot to enjoy each other's company.
Go on an unforgettable adventure when you visit the appropriately-named Alabama Adventure! This is the summer park where great memories are made. Beat the summer heat when you take the plunge at Splash City that features rides and attractions in the Magic City section while Marvel City offers amusements for the smaller kids to enjoy. And mom and dad will appreciate the dining options and shopping destinations that are available on Celebration Street. Plus, there's a summer concert series that features the popular American Idol finalists, so make sure to include Alabama Adventure in your vacation plans.
