Why Belfast matters
Belfast has transformed itself into one of the most interesting small capitals in Europe. The docks where the Titanic was built are now a major museum, the Cathedral Quarter hums with live music, and historic pubs keep their Victorian snugs. The city's complex recent history is told openly in murals and tours, and local guides are often the best way to understand it. It is also the easiest base for the Antrim coast.
Talking points
- Titanic Belfast stands on the site where the ship was built.
- St George's Market is a favourite weekend food stop.
- Black taxi and walking tours explain the city's recent history.
- The Causeway Coast is a half-day trip north.
