3About Belfast
Belfast sprawls where the River Lagan meets Belfast Lough, with Cave Hill rising behind it. The A1 brings you up from Dublin in under three hours, while the A2 Causeway Coastal Route heads north to the Giant's Causeway. George Best Belfast City Airport sits just outside town, with Belfast International a bit further out. The Titanic Quarter has replaced the old Harland and Wolff shipyards where the famous ship was built. Political murals in Falls Road and Shankill tell the city's story, while the Cathedral Quarter buzzes with decent restaurants and galleries.
