The Best of NileGuide
- Belfast sits atop a somber reminder of human history, and the hope for a peaceful future. A historical row of pubs dating back to the 1880's line Great Victoria Street as does the Europa Hotel, the 4-Star establishment known as "The most bombed hotel in Europe." Soak up the history Belfast has to offer on a Black Taxi Tour through sectarian Catholic and Protestant neighborhoods full of soul-grabbing murals, raw human experiences, and stories narrated by cab drivers who could be University-level history professors in their spare time. It is the best £30 you will ever spend. Built in the grand Classical Renaissance style, with an Italian marble interior, the Ulster Museum crams in 9,000 years of Irish history with exhibits on art, furniture, ceramics, costume, industrial heritage, and a permanent display of products "Made in Belfast." Or, if you're the sporting type, catch a game of Gaelic football, the national sport of Ireland, and a rather unique take on the mashing of rugby mixed with the finesse of soccer. Belfast is also the city where the Titanic was built, the dry dock still intact. If you're looking for a different kind of European adventure, Belfast is calling.
