My first visit to Belfast was when I was 10 years old and now I am 59 and I am still as fascinated as I was then. If possible you have to go down to the engine room and boiler room. It is fascinating to see the internal structure of such a ship. For small children or those with mobility problems, these small corridors and vertical ladders are a workout and are very profoundly recognized

One of the largest light cruisers of the war, although this light should be quoted. The British ship, which is more than 11 thousand tons, has been involved in many naval battles and is said to have been involved in land shelling during the Korean War. It was used as Her Majesty's Royal Warship after the war.
The cruiser Belfast Museum (SMS Belfast) is an Edinburgh-class light cruiser built by the Royal Navy in the 1930s. In 1938, the water, with a displacement of 11,553 tons, each with two triple-mounted main gun turrets, was laid out in a back-mounted arrangement, equipped with four triple-mounted 6-inch (152 mm) main gun, one of the largest light cruisers built by the Royal Navy. The ship served in World War II and achieved great success. It is now parked near Tower Bridge on the Thames in London as a museum, under the jurisdiction of the Imperial War Museum.
When you take a boat trip over the Thames, you see a ship parked in the middle of the river, the famous Belfast cruiser. He is the pride of the Royal Navy, the glory of World War II, and now a ship museum. It shows a variety of living equipment and facilities for the sailors, and the various scenes here are vivid and specific, with that English sense of humor, very, very interesting.
Ending our tour of Tower Bridge, walking along the Thames for about five minutes before a retired cruiser docked on the shore, this is the last attraction we visit today. The London Pass was used today in exchange for tickets to the attractions named Belfast cruiser. The staff at the ticket office told us responsibly that it usually takes more than two hours to visit the attraction, and we were only an hour away from the museum when we arrived. We were originally a crowded out of the attraction, so we hurried on to the warship and began a "horse race and flower viewing" tour. Belfast cruiser, an Edinburgh-class light cruiser of the Royal Navy, started construction in 1936 and launched in 1938, with a displacement of 13,175 tons, and served brilliantly in World War II. The ship was decommissioned in 1963 and opened to the public at the docks upstream of Tower Bridge from Trafalgar Sea War Memorial Day in 1971. This is the second British warship to be retained in the name of the country. Many of the cabins open to visit on the warship have life-size models, realistic shapes, rich expressions, real scenes, so that tourists feel the recovery scene in the immersive. The postal room, dining room, activity room, hospital and other scenes make us feel the humanistic care of the warship. The warship display room is a true reflection of the glorious history of the warship, ascending through the cab and the captain's room to the front deck of the warship, which is also a good place to enjoy the view of the Thames. Tall modern buildings echo the old Tower of London castle, with boats and busy bridges crisscrossing the river, crowds on both sides of the riverside avenue and a variety of buildings. After a little groping from the deck of the ship, it eventually retrogrades into the negative layer of the cabin, where the ship's powertrain is located. Huge mechanical equipment takes up all the space and visitors can only travel through the narrow aisles. Before waiting to go to the negative third floor, we were blocked by the staff near the closing and cleaning of the yard and asked to return. We can only regret that we returned to the back deck of the warship and left this tourist attraction on time.
The museum is in the warship, there are many layers of exhibition areas, each with immersive sound effects, when the life on the ship surfaced vividly.
It was my husband’s choice and I enjoyed the tour too. It was easy to find and a short walk from the station. We spent about 90 minutes on the boat and went all over the place. It was fun, but be aware of the stairs. Staff are friendly and helpful, and it is also a great place to take pictures of the Tower of London or the Tower of London and London Bridge.
