What to do and visit in Belfast

  • Tour around Belfast City Hall and the nearby shopping streets.
  • Spend some time in Belfast's pubs, such as the Duke of York or the Crown Liquor Saloon.
  • Visit the Peave Walls. Due to the period known as "The Troubles" in the late 1960s, the city built these huge walls to separate Republican and Nationalist Catholic neighbourhoods from one another. Thankfully no longer required, the walls are set to be torn down by 2023, so make sure you get to see a part of Northern Ireland's history while you still can.
  • Visit Stormont, the Northern Irish Parliament Buildings. Set in beautiful parkland, it is hard to imagine that this is just 15 minutes outside of the city centre.
