Belfast

 

The Capital of Northern Ireland, Belfast is an amazing city to experience. With an amazing airport, motorways and seaport, Belfast can be accessed by all avenues of transport. Perhaps the biggest claim to popularity Belfast has to offer is the main shipbuilders of the city – Harland and Wolff, which built the RMS Titanic.

 

Of course Parks and gardens are an important part of Belfast’s vast heritage and house a myriad of species of local wildlife and are popular sites for picnics and walks in the milder months, as well as playing host to a variety of activities and festivals.

Belfast also boasts an amazing zoo – Belfast Zoo – where you can see vulnerable and endangered species including Malayan Sun Bear’s, a Temmincks Golden Cat or the impressive Western Lowland Gorilla. Of course, being a large city, Belfast also has a fantastic nightlife and shopping facilities, as well as fabulous restaurants and entertainment outlets.
