Stormont Parliament Building in Belfast, home to the Northern Ireland Assembly (Corel)
On This Page:Belfast Overview
For those who grew up in the 1970s and 1980s when Belfast was plagued by violence and political unrest, to think of it now in terms of tourism rather than terrorism requires some mental calisthenics. But try. Because this is an extraordinary time to visit this city, as it is still in the process of picking itself up and dusting itself off after years of strife. Nearly half a million people, a third of Northern Ireland's population, live in Belfast, most of them in neighborhoods segregated by religion. Yet, you really see little sign of any residual religious tension in the city center. In recent years, the center has been polished up, and it is a pleasure to wander its pedestrianized lanes, to shop in the upscale arcades lined with glittering jewelry stores and colorful boutiques, to linger in the historic pubs and to dine in the Michelin-starred restaurants.
