@@TravelNoJitters That's great, we welcome all visitors. They are soon building a new place on Royal Avenue called Belfast Stories, it encompasses everything and anything about Belfast and it's people, history etc. Maybe next time you both come it will be open, take care and happy travels ❤️
One thing about belfast is that its a very young city compared to dublin ,it only really got going in the 19th century similar to north american cities
Such a rich history. It was truly an amazing experience. Sad that there was so much ruined, but it seems like they really preserved a lot as well. Absolutely impressive.
Enterprise has to be the most trolling name for the Dublin to Belfast train, takes nearly 2hr 30 mins to go just over 100 miles, a horse and cart would be faster.
Actually 2h15, but I agree it’s certainly not a Bullet Train or a TGV. But then Ireland isn’t a big country (Dublin - Belfast is only 100 miles) and I guess the distance and number of passengers just don’t justify investment in a faster system. Interestingly, I recently took an Amtrak train from New York City to Connecticut. 114 miles took 2h45!
@@josephlarmor550 The Enterprise service is long overdue investment I think 1995 was the last time it had any sort of mechanical upgrade, they tarted up the interior about 15 years ago but for a service which is busy between the two biggest cities on the island of Ireland it is a complete embarrassment
That’s awesome!! We stayed in Dublin. For Belfast we took the first train out of Dublin and took the last train back, giving us the entire day there. Typically, we stay at Hilton properties so we can get points and some additional perks for loyalty. Looking at Belfast, there’s 3 Hilton’s there. Two of them are close around city centre. Could be a solid option for you depending on what you all will be doing. We enjoyed wandering around, visiting different pubs, and historical sites. Regardless, I’m sure you all will have a wonderful time!!
We definitely wanted to see it. There was so much to see in such a short time. We have it on our list for our next trip there for sure ! Have you been?
