Belfast / Reino Unido

Belfast, Belfástia ou Belfaste é a capital da Irlanda do Norte e da província do Ulster, sendo a segunda maior cidade na ilha da Irlanda. Enquanto a população dentro dos limites da cidade é de cerca de 275.000, cerca de 750.000 pessoas vivem na área da Grande Belfast. Situa-se próxima à foz do rio Lagan. É flanqueada por trechos de montanha nos dois lados. O nome Belfast tem origem no irlandês Béal Feirste, ou 'boca do Farset' , o nome do rio onde a cidade se ergueu. O rio Farset foi tomado pelo rio Lagan, por este ser um rio mais importante. O Farset encontra-se agora canalizado debaixo da rua High. Bridge Street indica onde existia antigamente uma ponte sobre o rio Farset. Belfast testemunhou o pior dos conflitos na Irlanda do Norte. O Acordo da Sexta-feira da Paixão encorajou a reconstrução da cidade em larga escala, tais como a Victoria Square, o Titanic Quarter e Laganside incluindo o novo complexo Odyssey e o ponto de referência Waterfront Hall. Uma grande parte do centro da cidade é agora somente pedestre. Queen's University of Belfast é a principal universidade de Belfast. A University of Ulster também possui um campus na cidade, concentrando-se em belas-artes e design.
