Natural beauty, rich history and super-friendly locals make Belfast one of Europe's hottest destinations. Quick to charm and packed with brilliant attractions, including the world-class Titanic Belfast, this is a city that's bursting with creativity, from its boundary-pushing art galleries to its cutting-edge restaurants. Dig deeper, though, and you'll uncover the layers of history that make Belfast so compelling, from its Bronze Age origins to its prosperous shipbuilding past.
Set on the shores of Belfast Lough and framed by towering Cave Hill, Belfast is the gateway to the exceptional Causeway Coastal Route. But you don't have to go very far from the city centre to enjoy a bit of outdoor adventure. Head to Belfast Castle for a heart-pumping hike up Cave Hill and a stunning bird's-eye view of the city. Or check out the real-life locations from HBO's Game of Thrones® on a fun day trip. More than just a city, Belfast is the experience of a lifetime.
