Take a trip to Belfast on your Northern Ireland Vacation
Emerging as a vibrant destination teeming with culture and history, Belfast is a city in Northern Ireland offering a rich tapestry of experiences in the picturesque estuary of the River Lagan, surrounded by majestic mountains.
Venture into the Cathedral Quarter, Belfast's cultural and tourist hub, where a medley of cafés, bars, and architectural gems harkens back to the city's commercial and industrial heritage. St. Anne's Cathedral, Belfast Central Library, and the bustling Cornmarket's unique allure beckon globetrotters seeking to engage with the rich tapestry of Belfast's cultural heritage.
Belfast's green spaces are a breathtaking backdrop for picnics, leisurely walks, and invigorating runs, with over 40 public parks and a tropical ravine, fragrant rose gardens, and sprawling meadows in the Botanical Gardens.
Belfast's architectural landscape reflects a captivating fusion of styles, immersing you in its journey through time, from the elegant Edwardian design of the City Hall to the sleek modernity of the Waterfront Hall. The City Hall, completed in 1906, stands as a symbol of civic pride and houses a poignant memorial to the ill-fated Titanic and a statue of Queen Victoria. Notable landmarks include the historic Ulster Bank and Northern Bank, the imposing Royal Courts of Justice, and the colossal Stormont, home to the Northern Irish parliament.
Explore the legacy of Titanic with an immersive boat tour around the shipyard where it all began. The world-famous Titanic Belfast, a colossal visitor experience spanning six floors and nine galleries, vividly recounts the iconic ship's history, from its construction in Belfast to its tragic demise.

The Festes Majors are summer festivals held in the villages of Andorra. Each festival is unique to the village, with its own distinct style.
The Pyrenean Mountain scenery and tax-free shopping are two of my favourite things about travelling to Andorra.
I love learning about Nicaragua's culture and experiencing its Spanish influence in some cities. I was only there for five days, but I'll never forget how delicious the food was and how welcoming and extremely polite the people were.
The Day of the Dead in Guatemala is a great local tradition where people gather to fly giant, intricately decorated kites to honour the dead.
The colourful Spanish architecture, the beautiful scenery, particularly the stunning lakes, and the Mayan ruins are what I love most about Guatemala!
