Belfast day trip, Northern Ireland

Belfast is Northern Ireland’s capital, with close to 350 000 people living within the city and a total of 1.13 million in the wider city region. Belfast has enjoyed 26 years of peace. However, there are still over 20 miles of peace walls - or peace lines - across Northern Ireland, the majority across Belfast, which surprisingly remain closed at night to this day!
Some intruding facts...
* C.S. Lewis and Van Morrison were born in Belfast.
