Things to do in Belfast

The capital of Northern Ireland, Belfast is a modern, vibrant and stylish city. With its beautiful blend of Georgian, Victorian and Edwardian architecture, there are many places of interest here, including ‘Belfast City Hall', ‘The Grand Opera House' and ‘Belfast Castle'. The ‘Ulster Museum' is also worthy of a visit. Housed in a striking Renaissance-style building, the museum tells the story of Ireland's 9,000-year-old history. And, as Belfast is the city that built the Titanic, ‘The Titanic's Dock and Pumphouse' is also worth checking out. There really is something for every taste here in this fascinating city.

Belfast has a number of specialist shops, including jewellers, art galleries, craft shops, antique shops and gift shops. For clothes shopping, head to Victoria Square, which is home to over 50 stores including House of Fraser, Topshop, Cruise, Reiss and H&M.

The local currency in Belfast is the British Pound (GBP).
