2024 Northern Ireland Travel Guide: Must-see attractions, popular food, hotels, transportation routes (updated in October)

🇬🇧The Beauty of Northern Ireland🌊💐

The beauty of Northern Ireland is both majestic and melancholic🌊💔. Having traveled all over England, I ventured here, to see the echos of ancient history and the breathtaking natural landscapes intertwine. 🪨Giants Causeway The Giants Causeway is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It features over 40,000 interlocking basalt columns formed by volcanic activity🌋 and glacial erosion🧊, stretching along the coastline for miles. This sheer power of nature's craftsmanship is just awe-inspiring✨. Legend has it that the causeway was built by an Irish giant🧌 to challenge a Scottish giant across the sea⚔️. 🥀Dark Hedges The Dark Hedges is a tunnel of over 150 beech trees, planted in the 18th century by the Stuart family as an impressive entrance to their manor. Over 300 years, these trees have grown freely, twisted forms🌲, their branches intertwining to create a canopy that shrouds the road from the sun light. The result is a hauntingly beautiful tunnel that feels timeless, serene, and a little bit mysterious🧝🏼♀️. 🌄Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge If you're seeking a thrill, look no further than the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, a suspension rope bridge crossing a chasm in the North Atlantic Ocean. As you carefully make your way across🧗🏻♂️, you will feel the wind🌬 whiping around you, and the waves crashing against the cliffs far below. The stunning views of the surrounding coastline is unforgettable. 🔮Mussenden Temple Perched precariously on a 120-foot-high cliff⛰, Mussenden Temple is a small, circular building, originally built as a library in the late 18th century. Overlooking the vast expanse of the Atlantic Ocean, and surrounded by rugged cliffs, weathered rocks, and circling seagulls🪶, it stands as a symbol of isolation and otherworldliness🍃. 🏛Dunluce Castle Dunluce Castle is a place where history's long-lost echoes pervades📜. It is an ancient and hauntingly romantic medieval castle perching on the coast, facing the endless sea🌊. Today, only the ruins remain, but they are no less impressive. As you wander through its stone walls, its ancient halls, and its roofless towers, you'll be transported back in time to an era of knights, kings, and epic battles🕯️. The site also features archaeological exhibits open to the public. 🏙Belfast No trip to Northern Ireland would be complete without spending a day of city walk🚶♂️in its capital city, Belfast. Start your day at Belfast City Hall, a testament to the city's history and success during the Industrial Revolution🏗️. From City Hall, take a leisurely stroll along the River Lagan, where you'll pass the iconic Big Fish sculpture🐠, a symbol of Belfast’s regeneration🎊. Continue along the river until you reach Titanic Belfast, a museum dedicated to the ill-fated RMS Titanic🛥. It offers an immersive look at the ship’s tragic story, from its construction to its fateful maiden voyage. #uktravel #nature #ireland #beauty #gameofthrones #northernireland

Giant’s Causeway - Belfast, N. Ireland

An UNESCO site since 1986, the Giant’s Causeway is one of the major attractions you should visit when you’re in Northern Ireland! It’s an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the end-result from an ancient volcanic eruption. It’s an hour drive from the capital city - Belfast, or you could take train to Coleraine Train Station and change to bus service 172. Hope I could return to the magnificent Northern Ireland for a road trip soon! #2023TravelWish #tripblazers #northernireland #darwintravel #belfast #giantscauseway
