Belfast is a city with a very rich history and culture. Maybe you would prefer to see the sights of Belfast City with us?
Here a just a few highlights of our Belfast City Taxi tour.
Home of the Belfast City Council, this magnificent Edwardian “wedding cake” was built during 1896-1906 by Alfred Brumwell Thomas, to reflect Belfast’s City status which was granted by Queen Victoria in 1888. The Dome is 173 feet high.
Located in Victoria Street and built by WJ Barrie in 1865, the top of the tower leans four feet off the perpendicular, the Clock leans as it was built on wooden piles on marshy, reclaimed land around the River Farset. The tower is 113 feet high (not quite Pisa) and is one of the best known landmarks of Belfast.
An outstanding example of a Victorian gin palace, The Crown is one of Northern Ireland’s oldest and best-known pubs. You can get a fine pint of the black stuff here and if you are looking for Real Ale in Belfast, you just found it! The Crown Liquor Saloon was built in 1839-1840 and is owned by the National Trust. Panels in the restaurant on the first floor were meant for the Britannic, the sister ship of the Titanic.
