The restaurant is less interesting, but a visit to the pub is a must when in Belfast.

In Belfast stands a fish so large, Made of steel and art, a true castle. Its blue shines in the sunlight, Its face a marine wonder. It swims in the cityscape, proud and free, A symbol of strength and harmony. People watch, marvel, laugh, And are awakened by the work of art. A sea spirit in the middle of the city, That shows what art and courage can do. The blue fish, so beautiful and clear, Remains wonderful in our hearts.

Anyone wanting to walk from the city center to the Titanic Museum will inevitably have to cross here. It's better than crossing the busy car bridge next to it.

Located right in the Titanic Quarter, the building is an eye-catcher from afar - the modern architecture with its sharp edges and shiny facades is reminiscent of the bow of the famous ship and offers an exciting contrast to the historic docks where the Titanic was once built. Here you can immerse yourself in the history of the legendary ocean liner, from its construction by Harland & Wolff to its tragic maiden voyage. However, the exhibition goes far beyond the Titanic and also sheds light on the stories of its sister ships, the Olympic and the Britannic. In the spacious halls, which cover a total of 12,000 square meters, you can expect a thoughtful mix of interactive exhibitions and historical exhibits - perfect for taking a break from cycling and immersing yourself in the maritime past.

Victoria Park in Belfast is an interesting spot for a short bike ride and a break by the water. It is accessible 24 hours a day and has a quiet lake that is enlivened by swans, ducks and other water birds. The walk around the lake is particularly relaxing, where gently curved paths lead you through the greenery of the park. The complex dates back to 1906 and was designed by landscape architect Charles McKimm, who also designed the impressive tropical hall in the Botanical Garden. You can also explore the small BMX track by bike, which attracts ambitious cyclists - perfect for adding a little variety. On the banks of the lake, the complex offers a beautiful mix of nature and urban flair. Free parking makes access uncomplicated and practical. A walk or a bike ride through this historic park is a refreshing break, especially with the lively birdsong and the proximity to the water. Whether for a short break or a longer stay – Victoria Park offers a pleasant ambience in the middle of the city.
