Nature lovers are not the type of people who can just admire natural beauty from afar—they enjoy getting as close as possible to various sites and areas in the great outdoors that attract their interest. One such place is Ruffner Mountain. This is a 1,000-acre nature preserve that is located just five miles from the center of Birmingham. This unique urban forest features 10 miles of hiking trails over ridgetops and through valleys that provide for stellar views of nature all along the way. The trail ends at a point that offers a spectacular view of the city. The forest not only features native plants and animals but also a small nature center with exhibits and a gift shop.

While the love you share with your sweetheart is a work of art, it's also a classic in its own way. Celebrate both of those qualities when you visit Birmingham's Four Seasons Antiques and Art Gallery on a romantic date. Break away from the expected as you delve into a world of one-of-a-kind art pieces and classic furniture that will add just the right amount of flair to your living space. Browse as long as you like, but you both will surely want to pick out a special item that will stand as a unique reminder of your special bond with each other.
