International Mural Wall Divis Street
Politically Charged Street Art Murals in Northern Ireland have become symbols of Northern Ireland, depicting the region's past and present political and religious divisions.
Belfast and Derry contain arguably the most famous political murals in Europe. It is believed that almost 2,000 murals have been documented since the 1970s. In 2014, the book, The Belfast Mural Guide estimated that, in Belfast, there were approximately 300 quality murals on display, with many more in varying degrees of age and decay. Murals commemorate, communicate and display aspects of culture and history. The themes of murals often reflect what is important to a particular community. A mural therefore exists to express an idea or message and could generally be seen as reflecting values held dear to that community.
In Irish republican areas the themes of murals can range from the 1981 Irish hunger strike, with particular emphasis on strike leader Bobby Sands; murals of international solidarity with revolutionary groups are equally common, as are those which highlight a particular issue, for example the Ballymurphy Massacre or the McGurk's Bar bombing. In working class unionist communities, murals are used to promote Ulster loyalist paramilitary groups such as the Ulster Defence Association and Ulster Volunteer Force and commemorate their deceased members. However traditional themes such as William III of England and the Battle of the Boyne, the Battle of the Somme and the 36th Ulster Division are equally common

Shankill Road
The Bayardo Bar attack took place on 13 August 1975 in Belfast, Northern Ireland. A unit of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA), led by Brendan McFarlane, launched a bombing and shooting attack on a pub on Aberdeen Street, in the loyalist Shankill area. IRA members claimed the pub was targeted because it was frequented by members of the Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF). Four Protestant civilians and one UVF member were killed, while more than fifty were injured.

Saint Peter's Cathedral, Belfast. (Irish: Ard Eaglais Naomh Peadar) is the Roman Catholic cathedral church for the Diocese of Down and Connor, and is therefore the episcopal seat of the Roman Catholic Bishop of Down and Connor. It is located in the Divis Street area of the Falls Road in Belfast, Northern Ireland and construction began in the 1860s. It is home to St Peter's Schola Cantorum (Choir).
N/A
The peace lines or peace walls are a series of separation barriers in Northern Ireland that separate predominantly Republican and Nationalist Catholic neighbourhoods from predominantly Loyalist and Unionist Protestant neighbourhoods. They have been built at urban interface areas in Belfast, Derry, Portadown and elsewhere. The stated purpose of the peace lines is to minimise inter-communal violence between Catholics (most of whom are nationalists who self-identify as Irish and Protestants (most of whom are unionists who self-identify as British.
The peace lines range in length from a few hundred yards to over three miles (5 km). They may be made of iron, brick, and/or steel and are up to 25 feet (8 m) high. Some have gates in them (sometimes staffed by police) that allow passage during daylight but are closed at night.
The majority of peace walls are located in Belfast, but they also exist in Derry, Portadown, and Lurgan.

Troubles

Troubles Black Cab Tour.
Published on Feb, 2025
This was a great snapshot into the history of the Troubles. Our driver/guide was Joe and he was a very knowledgeable man who had himself lived through the Troubles and was able to offer a unique insight through the streets of Belfast.
His own personal story added to the experience and I think it made a difference that we had done a slight bit of research regarding the Troubles which made for a good conversation with Joe. He was happy to answer any questions that we had so it wasn’t just a one way thing.
We were taken to many places of interest to see memorial plaques and murals and stopped for a few photo opportunities along the way.
We both really enjoyed the tour and wouldn’t hesitate to recommend this for anybody interested in the Troubles.
Highly recommend
Published on Feb, 2025
I highly recommend taking this black cab tour. Our driver and tour guide Billy gave us a detailed history account through his own experience having grown up in Belfast. Billy was an absolute gent and we would highly recommend taking a tour with him. The tour was so informative and very interesting and it is a must for anyone visiting Belfast.
Barry is First Class
Published on Jan, 2025
I had been on a black cab tour before. When i came back to Belfast i had to take my wife on a tour. Barry absolutely blew the other tour out of the water. It was absolutely incredible. Barry's personal insight and he depth of knowledge of the troubles is incredible. He is genuinely a great human being that brought tears to our eyes and laughter to our hearts about a personal and painful time for the people of Belfast. I thought I a had an understanding of Irish history and I was blown away. Barry's tour is first class. I would only recommend Barry to anyone traveling to Belfast. After the tour we not only felt like we had a better understanding of the history of the north of Ireland but we had a friend in the north.
