Belfast (Northern Ireland)

Belfast is the capital and largest city of Northern Ireland, located on the eastern coast of the island of Ireland. It’s known for its rich industrial heritage, particularly shipbuilding, as the birthplace of the Titanic. Belfast has a complex history, marked by conflict known as "The Troubles" that involved political and sectarian violence from the late 1960s to the late 1990s. The city has undergone significant transformation since the signing of the Good Friday Agreement in 1998, becoming a vibrant cultural center with a burgeoning arts scene, diverse communities, and attractions like the historic Crown Liquor Saloon and the Titanic Quarter.
