Car Rental Belfast - Exploring Belfast

Belfast stakes its claim as an important industrial production centre of the Victorian era, its most famous construction being the Titanic, and a visit to the dockyards gives you a true impression of the city’s working class background.

Alternatively there are several lovely parks and estates out of the city centre, most notably the Sir Thomas and Lady Dixon Park - an attractive rolling parkland to the south of Belfast. The Barnett Demesne park and Belvoir forest park are also perfect for escaping the din of the city.

Further a field, North Ireland boasts an enchanting countryside, soaked in typical rural Irish charm. Two hours’ drive north the unique Giant's Causeway, is a wild, primeval, coastal landscape, consisting of 40,000 prismatic basalt pillars.

South of Belfast, the ancient Kingdoms of Down, is another area of unsurpassed beauty stretching from the eastern shores of Lough Neagh. Nearby, Armagh is venerated as the spiritual capital of Ireland with its 1500-year multi-denominational history.

To the southwest, threaded by streams and small roads, the Sperrin Mountains are lovely, while the Fermanagh Lakeland area is known throughout Europe as a wonderland for active watersports holidays - fishing, cruising and canoeing.
