Belfast Port Guide | Virgin Voyages

Overview

Belfast is a city with a story to tell, one of industrial might, profound conflict, and an inspiring modern revival. The city's shipbuilding past is powerfully captured at Titanic Belfast, a stunning, museum on the very slipways where the infamous ship was built. But the city's more recent, troubled history is just as visible. Take a Black Cab tour to see the Peace Walls and the famous political murals of the Shankill and Falls roads. Then, experience the city's modern energy. Dive into the St. Georges Market for local food and crafts, or explore the lively pubs of the Cathedral Quarter.
