Belfast
About
Belfast City Hall was crafted by the same artisans who shaped Titanic’s grand lounges — and inside, a whispering gallery once carried the private words of politicians across its dome. This self-guided tour lets you uncover these connections at your own rhythm, from the cobbled alley where Snow Patrol first performed beneath bright umbrellas to the Big Fish sculpture, its ceramic scales etched with fragments of the city’s story.
Follow Belfast’s rise from muddy riverside settlement to “Linenopolis,” hear of Mary Ann McCracken walking her brother to the gallows, and find out why the Albert Clock leans four feet off balance. The walk ends at the Crown Liquor Saloon, where revenge was hidden in...

Itinerary
1
Belfast City Hall
Stand before the building whose craftsmen walked straight off the Titanic's construction site.
2
Mary Anne Mccracken Statue
Meet the woman who walked her brother to the gallows — then spent an hour trying to undo it
3
Sir Edward James Harland
Face the man who bought a muddy riverbank for five thousand pounds and built the world's greatest shipyard on it.
4
Titanic Memorial Garden
Search the memorial for asterisks — each one marks a passenger whose real identity was never confirmed.
5
Belfast City Hall
Whisper against the curved wall and hear how this building eavesdropped on its own politicians.
6
Linen Hall Library
Step into a former linen warehouse whose first librarian was executed for revolution.
7
Donegall Place
Look up at the sculpted faces of the store's most famous customers, carved into the stone above the windows.
8
Castle Lane Belfast
Walk a shopping street that once sat behind a fortified Ring of Steel — and notice what's missing.
9
Spirit of Belfast
Pause over a hidden river flowing beneath your feet, in a square named for linen threads woven from rival traditions.
10
Trade union mural
Read a wall painted by two muralists from opposite sides of Belfast's divide — proving its own inscription right.
11
Cathedral Quarter
Scan the paving stones for words by a Nobel laureate and the man who invented Narnia.
12
Commercial Court
Duck into the alley where Snow Patrol played their first gigs under a canopy of colorful umbrellas.
13
Albert Memorial Clock Tower
Tilt your head at Belfast's own leaning tower, built on marshy ground and once a meeting spot for the city's working girls.
14
The Big Fish
Kiss a ten-metre fish for wisdom — locals do — then read the newspaper clippings baked into its ceramic scales.
15
Samson & Goliath cranes
Spot the only cranes on Earth protected with the same legal status as Stonehenge.
16
Thanksgiving Square
Look for the woman the locals call "Nuala with the Hula," leaning toward the sea to welcome everyone arriving in Belfast.
17
Daniel Joseph Jaffe Memorial Fountain
Trace the bright yellow fountain built by Belfast's only Jewish Lord Mayor — not as a monument, but as a temperance weapon.
18
The Crown Liquor Saloon
Step inside and check the floor mosaic — a Catholic husband's quiet revenge hidden in plain sight beneath every patron's feet.
