I must admit that I’m a real tourist. So I don’t miss the highlight of Belfast: The Titanic museum. I’ve the luck that this exhibition opend this year. Because this is a very famous sight you must book the ticket. Although I’ve made the online reservation I had forget the booking number. So Benny and me went to the Titanic Belfast by cab and hoped that would be OK without any confirmation for the ticket. Actually only my credit card sufficed to get the tickets. Additional we took a audio guide in German to understand the whole exhibition.
The area around the the museum is, only a few exceptions, very dismal. Therefore the building is very impressive. The facility is a mixture from the old (wood and rusty steel) and the new (refined steel and glass). The exhibition by itself is guided and logical structed. They are a lot of interactive display and holographic similarly presentations. I’m pleased with the ride into the artifical and interesting shipyard, which I’ve never expected.
Overall a very watchable sightseeing that must be seen by anybody who is in the near of Belfast and have a little interesting in history or ships.
