Belfast Castle (1870)
A fairytale-like castle, set at the foot of the rising slopes of Cavehill, this impressive landmark is steeped in history after being built to replace the older Belfast Castle destroyed by a fire. With the use of sandstone in a Scottish Baronial style, it echoes earlier Gothic medieval charms, with conical roof towers and an aesthetic winding stone staircase leading out to the garden. In the courtyard, the refreshing fountain and beautiful gardens promote tranquility, and visitors are offered splendid views overlooking the city which is why it is one of the most popular city attractions.
