Northern Ireland’s east coast. Home to a fascinating industrial and cultural past, Belfast is a city of<br />

captivating wall murals, great humour, and beautiful gardens.<br />

BELFAST |<br />

NORTHERN<br />

IRELAND’S<br />

CULTURAL<br />

CENTRE<br />

Getting In & Around<br />

Two airports serve the city, so you can choose from Belfast<br />

International Airport or George Best Belfast City Airport. If you<br />

don’t fancy flying, you can get there by regular ferry service<br />

from either Liverpool or Cairnryan in Scotland. Because<br />

Belfast is a compact city, you can easily get around on public<br />

transport or even see most of it on foot.<br />

Things To Do & See<br />

Visit the Titanic Quarter, a tribute to the city’s proud industrial<br />

heritage and its most famous export. Take in Titanic Belfast,<br />

the world’s largest museum dedicated to the fateful ship,<br />

or simply enjoy the shops, restaurants, and bars that have<br />

sprung up around this massive redevelopment.<br />

If you want a taste of a more traditional Belfast, we think you<br />

should include at least one visit to a proper Northern Irish<br />

pub. Order yourself a perfectly poured pint of Guinness at<br />

Kelly’s Cellars, a traditional pub with its roots dating back to<br />

the 1720s.<br />

Dining<br />

Belfast has a growing foodie scene that’s busy putting a<br />

contemporary twist on traditional Irish fare. As a city that’s<br />

defined by its proximity to the Irish sea, expect to find<br />

excellent seafood alongside sumptuous local beef. Famous<br />

restaurants in the city include James St. bar & grill and The<br />

Muddlers Club.<br />

Accommodation<br />

If you prefer accommodation that’s completely different<br />

and celebrates Belfast’s maritime history, we recommend<br />

checking out Barge at Titanic. You can stay on the water in<br />

a luxury converted barge that’s just a ten-minute walk from<br />

the city centre and everything it has to offer.<br />
