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.
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.
