Northern Ireland is one of the most popular travel destinations in the United Kingdom because of its long and rich past, which can still be seen in the local culture today. The Emerald Isle, as it is also known, has undulating hills and stunning greenery virtually everywhere you turn. Check out Cross the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, which is suspended nearly 100 feet (30.48 meters) above the Atlantic Ocean, for some absolutely breathtaking vistas. You could also visit Dunluce Castle or Carrickfergus Castle, both of which are centuries old. Belfast is a vibrant and dynamic port city with a diverse food scene and renowned attractions, including Titanic Belfast and Game of Thrones filming locations.
