| Belfast: Northern Ireland |
In recent years Belfast has been enjoying a revival, the city and riverfront have been totally regenerated. Much of the city is now pleasantly pedestrianized, an abundance of new attractions, restaurants, hotels and bars have been opened. This has resulted in a vibrant city with plenty for visitors to see and do. Enjoy some of the best nightlife in Ireland!
Walking around Belfast there are many exuberant Victorian and Edwardian buildings to admire. Queens University is full of charming Edwardian terraces with magnolia trees in their front gardens. The City Hall dominates the city centre and has a great guided tour showing the finest rooms and architecture of the building.
Other great places to take in are the Odyssey Arena and W5. The Odyssey Arena is home to the only ice-hockey rink in the country! Ice-hockey matches are proving very popular and are a great evening's entertainment for all the family. W5 (whowhatwhenwherewhy) is Ireland's first interactive discovery centre and is great fun for all the family.
New pubs, clubs and restaurants are springing up all over the place. Home to celebrity chefs Paul Rankin and Michael Deane, there is some top cuisine to be found in the city. Paul's bistro Cayenne is a great value Mediterranean restaurant while Deanne's perfect for that special occasion. More cosmopolitan restaurants have appeared recently including the ultra modern Porcelain at Ten Sq.
A trip to Belfast would not be complete without a shopping spree. All of the big High Street names are here as well as some interesting smaller boutiques.
