Vestavia Hills: Vivid Thrills 4 rating By Anonymous ( May 14, 2018) Alabama is my most favorite home ever. I grew up in the state and have many memories from it. I lived in several cities in different areas in the State and Vestavia Hills is one of the prettiest.

I love the ay the houses and architecture around the city look. The flowers have s ...Read More trong smells and the make me feel as though I’m in a fairytale land. The area has many different things to do because of the close proximity to several major cities. Vestavia has a very close relationship with Birmingham and that benefits it greatly. The bowling alley in this city has a unique charm and is a place where teens regularly hang.

The food here is good as well. The area seems to have the best of both worlds in terms of healthy and junk foods. The array of restaurants here is great. My favorite thing of it all is the city at night. You can see the stars shining in the sky and the fun to in the clubs really makes for an enjoyable experience. Overall Vestavia Hills is a city that I as a young man loved living in and it really is good for young people. Read Less
