Synopsis
Step beyond the Titanic Quarters. Wander past the postcard sights. Discover the Belfast that hides in plain sight. Let Secret Belfast: An Unusual Guide lead you far from the familiar crowds of St George’s Market and Crumlin Road Gaol. This captivating, alternative guidebook uncovers the city’s most intriguing corners - the quirky architecture, eccentric museums, mysterious underground spaces, and enchanting green hideaways. Discover the C.S Lewis Reading Room where there is a door and carpet dedicated to the creator of Narnia. Learn about the 10-metre-long ceramic sculpture of a salmon, known by locals as the ‘The Salmon of Knowledge’ where the scales are made from intricate mosaic tiles, each revealing a different aspect of Belfast’s complex history. With over 100 unusual and unfamiliar places, this is the perfect companion for curious travellers, city explorers, and people who think they’ve seen it all. Whether you love mysterious underground worlds, peaceful secret gardens, or wonderfully strange museums, you’ll find something unforgettable:- Discover ‘Pogue’s Entry’ Historical Cottage that stands just off the road in the centre of town and has a peaceful garden, surrounded by period buildings.
- Visit the Tropical Ravine house where you can walk round the botanical gardens which has an extremely rare one-celled fern known as the ‘Killarney fern’.
- Uncover ‘Crash on the Hill’ artefacts where you will find the remains of a plane that crashed on Cave Hill in 1944.
- Enjoy Belvoir Forest Park where you will uncover Ireland’s oldest oak tree which was planted in 1642 and at its largest, its girth would have measured around 9 metres.
- Stroll around the Linen Hall Library to view the ‘Troubled Images’ exhibition, a collection of 70 thought-provoking and iconic posters. Why You’ll Love Secret Belfast:
- Over 100 quirky, surprising, and little-known places
- Perfect for curious travellers, locals, and armchair explorers
- Packed with insider tips from local experts Kathy Curran and Lorenza Bacino who have lived and worked Belfast their whole life
