Belfast is an exciting place: forget its troubled past; this is a city keen to welcome visitors and fulfil its potential as a vibrant European city. The city centre is a mixture of grandiose architecture, chic shops, bustling markets and stylish restaurants catering for a cosmopolitan capital city. The handy pocket-sized Great Breaks Belfast is packed full of ideas on what to do and see here, including the Titanic Quarter, the Ulster Folk and Transport Museum, and the astonishing Giant's Causeway. Ten walks explore the city itself, then there are three excursions into Northern Ireland's beautiful countryside and coastline. We focus on Belfast's unique cultural heritage, as reflected in its Mural Arts, the Titanic legacy and its historic pubs (we recommend the best). Each route has its own detailed map for easy orientation, and vivid photography on every page captures the essence of this fascinating city. We include plenty of practical information to plan your trip and select accommodation options to suit all tastes and budgets.
