Belfast is the largest city in Northern Ireland, and the capital of the Northern part of the island of Ireland that is still part of the United Kingdom. As a result, Belfast is something of a meeting point of cultures between mainland Britain and Ireland. Belfast was the center of the ongoing struggle between Irish nationalists and British loyalists, and during the 70s and 80s was one of the world's most dangerous cities. However, the dark period known as the Troubles came to an end with the Good Friday agreement in 1998. Nowadays, Belfast is no more dangerous than any other city of comparable size in Europe.

Perhaps it's this dark past that has made Belfast so future-facing. Once an industrial powerhouse and center of shipbuilding, Belfast has reinvented itself as a major player in the aerospace industry. The city combines old world charm with cutting edge modernity. And, as the capital of Northern Ireland, it's also a cultural hub. Whatever you like to do, chances are you'll find it in Belfast. 

Belfast is located a quick train ride away from lots of incredible small towns in Northern Ireland. If you are in Belfast for a couple of days or just passing through don’t forget about looking into Bounce’s luggage storage services. We have an easy-to-use luggage storage network throughout Belfast and Northern Ireland. To book luggage storage download our luggage storage app or explore our interactive map online. We’ve partnered with local hotels, cafes, and souvenir shops to create secure storage facilities, and if any issues arise we have a responsive 24/7 customer support team. 

As an ancient city with a fascinating history, Belfast isn’t short of things to do. Whether you like to learn about history, admire gorgeous Irish scenery, or dance the night away to the strains of traditional music in a lively pub, Belfast has you covered. You could spend years in the city and never exhaust the possibilities for entertainment.

Explore the history of the world’s most famous ship Titanic Belfast. The Titanic was built in Belfast, and this state-of-the-art museum explores the history of the Belfast shipyards and the creation of the ill-fated ocean liner. It also explains in detail the tragic fate of the ship and her passengers. The museum only has a limited number of lockers on site, so if you are in need of a left luggage facility check out one of Bounce’s nearby storage locations.  

Shop like a local at St. George's market. This Victorian covered market has been a fixture of the city for generations and remains a fun and lively place to wander through the stalls and soak up the unique atmosphere. After you finish at the market swing over to Great Victoria Street to explore some more local shops. 

Venture behind bars at Crumlin Road Gaol. This notorious prison was built in the 19th century and housed many notorious figures from the Troubles. The scene of several executions, the prison is now a fascinating museum and also a surprisingly popular wedding venue.

Breathe in the tranquility at Belfast Botanic Gardens. This 28-acre facility brings a tropical feel to this northern climate and is the perfect place to unwind and stroll among hundreds of different plant species.

Visit the Ulster Museum and explore its vast art collections that highlight the past, present, and even the future. The museum is located in the botanical gardens and is the perfect place to escape the rain. There are small lockers available for rent in the museum, however, if you have a suitcase you will need to find an alternative storage space. 

Admire the architecture of Belfast City Hall and even take a tour of the active city hall. If you have a large group, make sure to make a reservation before you go as reservations are limited. Check the bag policy before you go as you may need to locate secure storage options for large bags or backpacks.

Belfast is home to both an international airport and a smaller city airport that handles flights to the rest of the UK and parts of Ireland. The international airport is connected to the city by bus 300, which brings passengers to the city center in around 50 minutes. If you want to keep your items close to you while you explore Belfast, Bounce luggage storage facilities are near all the popular attractions. Simply store your luggage in the city centre for a few hours and pick it up on your way back to the airport or before you check in to your hotel or Airbnb. 

Lanyon Palace is Belfast's main train station. From here, you can catch trains all over Ireland. The Enterprise train service connects Belfast city with Dublin. The station does not have any luggage lockers or facilities to store luggage, so you will need to look for a luggage storage service like Bounce. 

The Europa Bus station is located in the center of Belfast right around the corner from Great Victoria Street. The bus system runs on time and is reliable. 

Belfast's compact size makes it extremely walkable for a capital city. And in many ways, the city is best explored on foot. The quaint streets and unique neighborhoods make Belfast a great pedestrian city.

You'll want to travel light. This is why Bounce offers convenient luggage storage in Belfast, along with many other cities around the globe.

Lough Neagh: Just outside Belfast, Lough Neagh is the largest lake in Britain. Large as it is, the lake is surprisingly shallow for its size, though it can get rough on a windy day. If the weather allows, it's a great place to go fishing or boating or simply go for a walk and admire the scenery. Make sure to leave your bags at a luggage storage facility in Belfast before making the trip out to this beautiful lake.

Giant's Causeway: Marvel at the unique volcanic rock formation of the Giant's Causeway. One of Northern Ireland's most popular tourist attractions, the basalt columns of this coastal formation are one of the world's most unique locations for photographs. Roughly an hour's drive from Belfast, the Giant's Causeway is steeped in myths and legends and is a perfect place to explore the wilder side of Northern Ireland.

Down Royal: Get your heart pumping at Down Royal racecourse. Nothing beats the excitement of putting some money on a horse, and you don't need to be an expert to try your luck. Whether you win big or not, you'll have a great time watching these majestic animals run and enjoying the thrilling atmosphere.

To make your trip even more seamless be on the lookout for a  safe place with Bounce to drop your belongings. If your plans change, no worries.
