It is home to the University of Birmingham, Birmingham Botanical Gardens, and Edgbaston Cricket Ground, all of which give the neighbourhood a cultured, community-oriented feel. Restaurants, independent cafes, and wine bars along Harborne Road and the surrounding streets add to the appeal for visitors who want evening options without the noise of the centre.
