A museum worth seeing, the setting is great, there are many Titanic stories, Chinese audio explanations are provided, but it costs &pound;5 apiece. It is worth it. Belfast is the most worth coming.

Belfast City Hall

放飞自我去游玩

Leading us from the middle stairs to the second floor by a man with a large belly, he introduced us to where we came from in the middle round handrails, really, it is the world and the north, the vast majority of foreigners. Then we led us to the hall of parliament, which is where the members of parliament meet, and there are microphones in each position, and then we started to talk about the history, functions, etc. of the building, and we were full of spirit. You can sit casually, even the position of the chancellor. After the introduction, I will lead you to visit other halls. The huge banquet hall is covered with thick and beautiful red carpets. What hall is the blue carpet is a bit unrememberable.

The castle is situated in between a mountain and sea. Gardens in the surrounding are also stunning. Moreover, if you like trekking, this is an ideal location.

Peace Wall Belfast

Historic buildings

The Peace Bridge is a beautiful landscape of Belfast, representing both a very sad history and the hopes of Northern Irish people. The walls are full of various graffiti works, most of which are paintings that represent peace in Northern Ireland, and some of them are very moving and worthy of everyone&#39;s appreciation.

Black Mountain

Hiking

Mountain climbing

The streets of New Haierceger are a bit deserted, unlike the ancient city of Kotor, there are large cruise ships docking every day, bringing a large number of European elderly groups. But because there are fewer people, you can slowly stroll around and find more beauty.
