Join this walking tour of a vibrant district in Belfast, focusing on cultural heritage, history, and entertainment. Welcome to Belfast's linen neighbourhood.
Belfast Linen Neighbourhood
At the specified time, we'll meet outside Ulster Hall to commence this guided tour. This neighbourhood transitioned from a thriving linen industry in the 1800s to a lively area in the city center. The tour will unveil its unique past and present as we pass iconic sites such as the Grand Opera House and discover hidden gems.
Our guide will share stories covering 250 years of history, including the largest bell in the city and its brief period of silence. Notably, Led Zeppelin performed ‘Stairway to Heaven’ live in Belfast in 1971 for the first time.
Discussion will also include the linen industry's pivotal role in the city’s development, as we note locations where workers used to bathe before modern amenities. Currently, the area serves as a vibrant hospitality zone filled with popular venues, pubs, restaurants, and bars.
Belfast's landscape is enriched with incredible street art adorning its buildings. We'll appreciate the architecture, renowned entertainment venues, local bars, and eclectic shops during our exploration.
After 2 hours, we will conclude this walking tour of Belfast's Linen Neighbourhood in Flaxx, a trendy area in the city center.
