Take a City Break in Belfast
When visiting the lively capital of Northern Ireland in the winter, it is best to dress in layers. Even when the weather isn't in your favor, you'll want to explore all of the fantastic things that are available.
The Cathedral Quarter, named for St. Anne’s Cathedral, is the city’s historic trading quarter and is packed with Victorian architecture, cobbled streets, and quirky pubs and restaurants. Next is time for Botanic Gardens, any time of year is a beautiful time to visit there. Other horticultural wonders surround the walking paths, while tropical plants can be viewed in the Palm House and Tropical Ravine. Warm up with indoor exhibits at the spectacular Titanic Belfast museum or the Ulster Museum, a building that is as unique on the inside as it is on the outside. The ideal setting for an informal evening of entertainment with pop, rock, classical, and opera is the Waterford Concert Hall.
