- Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland in the UK. With a population of around 300.000 people it is the second largest city of the island after Dublin in the Republic of Ireland. Belfast is also known to be the building place for the RMS Titanic.
We start our afternoon walk at the Belfast City Hall in the city centre. From there we stroll around the lively walking streets and the shopping complex Victoria Square. We also visit Belfast Big Fish beside the Lagan Lookout and cross over to the Titanic Quarter.
Walking along the Lagan river we make our way to the Titanic Experience where we end this walk.
For an evening tour of Belfast, please check out this walk: • Walking in BELFAST / N...

Belfast has a mixture of London and New York architecture.
Yeah thats why I like it , it’s beautiful 🤩
I would always miss Belfast for my year studying at Queen's was the best period of time of my life. Such a lovely city.
same here did my masters IN international human rights law great city
i did masters in queens international human rights law great year iFEEL SO EMPOWERED AFTE BELFAST I FEEL LIKE I TAKE ON THE WORLD!!!! when thebelfast child sings again
BELFAST IS VERY CLEAN AND IT LOOKS GREAT PROUD TO CALL IT MY HOMETOWN 🥰🤩❤❤❤
Love the British Victorian architecture. Reminds me of Manchester 👍
Are you from Manchester?
@@beaucaspar3990 Yes
@@itsme-sn5gi I ain’t from Manchester, I’m from Colchester, Essex. I believe the Town Hall in Manchester is a good example of Victorian architecture, it’s like gothic themed.
Well I have watched on CZcams someone walking around Belfast Manchester Birmingham Glasgow.
I have to say to me all British cities look the same.
The usual mixture of old buildings and brand new buildings.
Wow, so much different from Lille, but just as impressive - very modern architecture with some older buildings in very good shape. Seems like a lot of growth took place in the last 20 years especially with the fighting officially over. Hard to believe this was considered one of first world’s most dangerous cities not too long ago.
Belfast , is a lovely city .
Drove through Belfast but didn't get into the city. Thanks for showing us what we missed and inspiring us to plan for a return trip. Looks like a beautiful city, though with a bit of gritty hardness to it. Thanks again. -Henry
Thank you! I liked my 2 days there which was mostly due to a city festival "Culture Night" that had food and drinks on the street. More Ireland videos are coming soon. I saw your excellent Dublin walk
POPtravel look forward to more from Ireland. Glad you liked the Dublin vid. All the best. -Henry
I lived there for a few months....great memories with this city, thank you!
I was there in last week of october 2019 Belfast , Bangor, Derry , Dublin I miss all that ......
@@ampleman602 i know but thanks to remind me its walways usefull

@@ampleman602 It’s within the Island of Ireland.....
That is within the British Isles.@@kieransavage3835
Thank you for sharing the wonderful walking tour video with a beautiful view of the city. Like 814.
Amazing video! You deserve at least 20 million views...
Lovely walk!
Miss you Belfast.
There is also an evening walk of Belfast on the channel: czcams.com/video/V5q8f_eluOg/video.html
Fantastic tour
I love hearing the irish accents
Especially the North Irish accent!
Quattro5081 I love the N. Irish accent. Very melodic.
Me too.... nice!
Who doesn't
I know a bit of history about Belfast (unfortunately I've never been there)...and it's obiouvsly about the Troubles! The city centre was nearly a no-go area back then, and the Army was everywhere, with checkpoints and so on.
Now looks vey good, lively and clean. Just like any major British city.
Greetings from Italy :)
@Ruán Conán of course! If I go to a nationalist area I might get shot for saying that :D
It’s an Irish city but a lot of it was built by the British. 😉
@@JohnMcMahon. of course 🙂. I said "British" because it's still under UK rule...but it may change in the forthcoming future!
@@chrismullan7191 look at my previous comment 😉
Belfast isn’t in Britain so it’s no more British and any Italian city.
Belfast here looks like a US city ,with the same shops ,Starbucks malls etc very pleasant and clean.
US cities are less dense and compact except NY
Belfast has a lot of tension between communities tho
@@darkmoonsyndrome8167 what communities???
@@mustafajuventino9964 nationalists/Catholics and unionists/protestants
@@darkmoonsyndrome8167 that's sad to hear..
Having a rest. you keep up a good pace.
Really lovely video - great to see our city looking so positive & sunny. I was trying to work out when it was videoed - sunny & warm yet the kids are in their uniforms. Makes sense now - culture night. You should try to visit the Titanic Hotel if you are ever back - the drawing offices where the Titanic was designed & where the telegram was received with news of the sinking. Actually that whole area of Belfast is really interesting. You get a glimpse of how prosperous, innovative & progressive we were at one point as well as some of the innovation happening again in the city.
As well as the ship Titanic Belfast designed and manufactured the first vertical take off jet aero plane the Shorts Vertical T/O jet
The Irish love to walk....and talk.....and. Several other things....
that wedge buiding is terrific to visit.
beautiful rendition of the piano man.
"Greetings!
I live in Barueri, Metropolitan Region of the City of São Paulo.
I liked the video. Despite being a different place, there are many similar things here in São Paulo.
Thank you so much for posting! "

Maybe not the Climate????
@@kieransavage3835 "Yes!!!"
Supo do maccaco
👍👏😊♥️🇺🇸 Thanks!
Lovely city. Felt like I was taking a walk in it myself. Will visit sometime. Regards from Dublin
Been lots of cities in Ireland Belfast including
The street is very lively!🤩 Titanic pose is fun. But she's alone?😅
That is Queen Victoria statue.Titanic was an ocean liner built in Belfast,which sank on its maiden voyage when it struck an iceberg in the Atlantic Ocean.
A beautiful place! A new sub here! Dave from England!
This video's grand, so it is (as they might say around here).
Seems crazy not to come here when I’m in Ireland...I wrote about it and Bushmills repeatedly in three novels. Looking forward to getting lost down town.
Was it Bushmills village or bushmills Whiskey..????
This isn't Ireland, I can understand your ignorance though. (Ireland hasn't been a country since December 15th 1948, no, not cus muh evil Brits) Bushmills is actually the oldest licensed whiskey distillery on Earth. The best bit? It's not even Irish. It's in Northern Ireland, United Kingdom. Kingdom of Ulster. ❤🤍💙
I love Ireland!
Yeah this isn't filmed in "Ireland" It's filmed in the United Kingdom (UK) "Ireland" actually hasn't been a country since December 15th 1948 as they Irish renamed their southern states in order to better differentiate themselves from their nzi supporting roots during WW2. (They were very very close allies with Axis forces)
A nice way to end the Belfast walk. You've got the Stamina. That boat you past as you entered the Titanic Quarter, do younow its name. Is that the boat that ferried passengers to the Titanic from South coast of Ireland, if you happen to know.? Great job with the walk and video. Thankyou!
Cheers!
Thank you! The SS Nomadic is indeed the ship that transferred passengers to the Titanic. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SS_Nomadic_(1911)
Beautiful city!..... greetings from New York State USA
did my masters In international human rights law here in QUB great univeristy grea ttime best year of my life
where are all the clouds?
Thanks for your video 😀 But I think you'll notice that the white balance or exposure was too high.
that sounded like joy division.
Looks nicer than Dublin, more modern too, very clean
Aye Dublin is disgusting, especially in modern day, The Republic of Ireland is officially in a recession too. Really really poor country and city. It's why so many are migrating to the UK (Ulster)
I disagree that Belfast is more modern than Dublin, but you're entitled to your opinion.
@@WeldersFSC Dublin city is choked with traffic because many people have cars, that doesn't sound like a poor city to me. Unemployment around 3%. As regards people moving up north, that sounds like something from a child's storybook. Fairytale.
I LOVE THIS WALK AROUND BELFAST BUT CAN YOU SHOW THE NAME OF THE STREETS PLEASE.. I LEFT BELFAST 58 YRS AGO AND I HAVE PASSED ON YOU VIDEO TO ALL MY BELFAST FRIENDS AND THEY LOVE THANK YOU FOR SHARING 😃🤩
Thank you! Back in 2019 I didn't record GPS coordinates but I do now - mostly since 2021. They are still not published on my website but they will be there eventually. This Belfast walk does not have it but I may return to Northern Ireland sometime soon. There is a 2nd walk which I recorded a day earlier that you may also like: czcams.com/video/V5q8f_eluOg/video.html
Thanks for watching
When I was very little, there were 3 nightly narratives on the news each day - Nicaragua, Beirut, and Belfast. The guerrilla war in Northern Ireland that lasted some 30 years was centered right here in Belfast. So pointless and so many lives lost!
Wasn't really pointless? It started over the Irish people wanting basic human civil rights, which they had to fight to get - they were slaughtered in the process by the British and are still occupied and oppressed to this day, but at least we have voting rights. So wasn't exactly pointless, if it didn't happen the Irish natives would still be treated like scum in Belfast, we still are but just not AS badly.
@@hrhrhrhrhr2503 Obviously it is up to N. Ireland how they want their future. But really don't get why they are so proud to be British more so than the English. Like as you said they have been oppressed.
Well the troubles were alot like the American independence war as the nationalists wanted a fully independent Ireland, and the nationalist movement started way back but the violence spiked in those 30 years and became known as the troubles
An absolutely pointless time. Terrorists killed people and achieved nothing.
this is great, try going through security gates in the early 70s
It’s an open city now...great atmosphere....
@@kieransavage3835 The great British city of Belfast! 🇬🇧
I live in Belfast.
compared to dublin it looks cleaner, newer and not so full with people. is that correct? would you say belfast is as good as dublin regarding friendlyness etc.?
People sure were friendly in Ireland. Belfast is a bit smaller than Dublin, also fewer tourists and I enjoyed it very much there. The "Culture Day" festival when this was filmed also made a nice atmosphere
@@poptravelorg cool, thank you
Not a good question.
A two-story bus is good. I've only been in Hong Kong.British students are also uniforms.
In London there are triple decker buses
That woman singing has a lovely voice. by chance did you catch who it was? lol
Is there people dancing in the streets to Irish music ?
Well, uhhh ... *no,* dear ({; D ....!
If they were they would be assaulted.
Belfast is part of a British colony on Irish land. Sadly it is a tense place but violence ended in 1999 after a peace agreement
What absolute rubbish It a very very friendly City I know,I was raised there.
Frankies everywhere.
No....They are all weee Sammies....
*Small city... Less population and SO MUCH TRAFFIC AND traffic 🚦⛔ JAMS ?* 🙄😲😳😱😵 my goodness HOW ? can anyone tell me HOW ? and is this city WORTH IT ? *should we visit or join UOB and be a student there ?* And what is there in this city ? Advantages and *no night life right ??*
Back on that day there was actually good nightlife as it was "Culture Night" - a once in a year event. Still there are plenty of pubs in Ireland though about the rest maybe a local can chime in...
@@poptravelorg you are talking about northern ireland which is part of UK .. Right? when you say ireland .. *Plus is this not as good to live in as in UK or Republic of Ireland ? Is UK any place better than BELFAST in terms of students, university life, places, weather, scenic beauty , jobs, different companies , activities, night life , people, money , things to do etc ??*
Ireland and the UK both have plenty of pubs. With Ireland I meant the island of Ireland. The border between the EU and UK is now between the islands of Ireland and Great Britain. There will be no controls at the border between Ireland and Northern Ireland. As for studying I think the UK is not part of the Erasmus program anymore - Europe has Erasmus. Ireland is much smaller than Britain so you have a smaller choice in the list you are interested in. Here on the channel I have bother plenty of (Republic of) Ireland videos as well as the UK. With Brexit you have two different economic zones and rules so requirements to enter either zone will differ...
"Ireland" isn't a country. It's a geographical title assigned to the physical island. The Island houses both 1/4 of the United Kingdom (UK) and the Republic of Ireland (EU) Hope this clears things up for you. @@poptravelorg
AMAZING WOW TODAY.... FOR 30 - 40 YEARS AGO IT WAS ALMOST WAR-ZONE🔥⛔🚫🔫🛡 IRA
VERY GOOD JOB, BRO ! :-) (greetings from ŁÓOŹ-Poland) )
Thanks a lot! 😎
you hold the camera at your waste?
I hold it in my hand so it's between waist and chest. It's an Osmo Pocket on a powerbank so a different way of holding compared to a gimbal
a suburban city
I was in Belfast once and I found it a very depressing city, am I alone on this?
I guess the difference was that I happened to be there during the "Culture Night". I took another video the evening before this video where it was more quiet and a different atmosphere... czcams.com/video/V5q8f_eluOg/video.html
@@poptravelorg Nah man, you videos are amazing! I'm just talking about my personal experience. I went to Belfast in 2019 and found it very industrial and depressing. The city in this video doesn't look depressing at all!
Espero pronto sea parte de la republica de Irlanda.
How about a Dublin walk?
Here you go: Dublin czcams.com/video/z1S3pHGjhpg/video.html - the Temple Bar area starts around minute 14
It’s 100 miles away from Belfast....or you can go by car bus or train....
Wandering into Orange areas outside the city centre ... let's say I wouldn't do it, to this day.
By orange do you mean native?
bruscar bán ->@@WeldersFSC
@@WeldersFSC no he means, decendents of the planted and colonisation. Green= natives.

Enjoy the 1.5 acres of the city hall, the rest is awash with gobs of spittal, broken pavements, open drainage grids, cars on the pavements, inclined pavements, hope you're not disabled!
Didn't look that way to me. Nice, clean organised city
We’re you disabled.....???
Bill you’re such a pessimistic bore. 😒
I think you've got a disability of the ocular variety. This is Belfast, not a hole like Dublin or Letterkenny. Our city centre is looked after.

Ah lovely, empty threats of theft and colonisation of land that isn't and has never been yours. Go on, try it again, even with the yanks funding you and giving guns you still lost. Try it again, it'll be funny.

It's UK! They don't want to part of Ireland. They'll loose universal healthcare and the chance to be part of a powerful economy and country!
I always wondered how Belfast would be, there are always old bad memories about it and its suffering.
Now, through to your video I'm getting an idea of what Belfast is like: with all due respect I was expecting something else, I don't like it too much, sorry...
What were you expecting? I live in Belfast. The video was just round the centre. There is a lot more than that good and bad.
If you dont like Belfast now, there's no way you would have liked it when it was "suffering"
Lovely British land, recently was in the Forbes top 10 for best places to work and live in, it had some of the best balance of work-life quality. For reference Dublin was 13th.
Says it all really doesn't it? ❤🤍💙 🇬🇧
