Belfast

Belfast is the capital and largest city of Northern Ireland, part of the United Kingdom. Historically significant for its shipbuilding industry, it is famously known as the birthplace of the Titanic. The city has a rich cultural heritage, marked by its vibrant music, arts, and political history, particularly during the Troubles—a period of conflict over national identity and governance from the late 1960s to the 1998 Good Friday Agreement. Today, Belfast is a thriving city, known for its stunning architecture, including the historic City Hall and the modern Titanic Quarter, and is a hub for education and tourism.
