Belfast Sights & Historic Jail Experience Witness the captivating history and maritime traditions of Northern Ireland’s capital city. Enjoy an informative drive through Belfast, originally named Béal Feirste—Gaelic for “mouth of the sandy fjord.” Pass historic and popular sights, and stop for photos at City Hall. See the Shankill area, which was at the center of the fighting in Northern Ireland during the late 20th century. Here, two conflicting neighborhoods are separated by a series of Peace Walls, on which you can view brightly painted political murals. Then, step back in time as you walk the halls of the Victorian-era Crumlin Road Jail.
