Visit West Belfast
Welcome to West Belfast – the heart of Ireland’s second city. West Belfast is known throughout the world as a hotbed of political invention and a platform for social progress. The legacy of the recent conflict is a confident community that attracts interest from actors, writers, politicians and an ever-increasing number of tourists from every continent.
Take a taxi tour in one of our famous Black Taxis or a walking tour organised by a political ex-prisoner. There’s lots to see - from the huge range of political murals to the traditional music sessions, from Milltown and City Cemeteries to Clonard Monastery. If you want fresh air, why not take a walk up Divis and Black Mountain or round the Bog Meadows? And if you are looking for a rest afterwards and a bite to eat, you’ll be spoilt for choice in West Belfast. Whether it’s lunch in the Cultúrlann or a coffee at the bottom of Colin Glen Forest Park, you’ll be assured of a warm welcome and good service.
