Located right in the Titanic Quarter, the building is an eye-catcher from afar - the modern architecture with its sharp edges and shiny facades is reminiscent of the bow of the famous ship and offers an exciting contrast to the historic docks where the Titanic was once built. Here you can immerse yourself in the history of the legendary ocean liner, from its construction by Harland & Wolff to its tragic maiden voyage. However, the exhibition goes far beyond the Titanic and also sheds light on the stories of its sister ships, the Olympic and the Britannic. In the spacious halls, which cover a total of 12,000 square meters, you can expect a thoughtful mix of interactive exhibitions and historical exhibits - perfect for taking a break from cycling and immersing yourself in the maritime past.

The route runs along Strangford Lough and offers impressive views of the water and the surrounding landscape. The colourful rows of houses along the esplanade are particularly attractive and give the place a special charm. The route is suitable for different types of bikes.

By 1975, the conflict in Northern Ireland known as the Troubles had already lasted for more than six years. On 10 February 1975, the Provisional IRA and the British government agreed to a ceasefire and resumed negotiations. The IRA agreed to stop carrying out attacks on the British security forces, and the security forces largely ceased their raids and searches. [1] However, there were opponents of the ceasefire on both sides. In the early hours of 31 July 1975, the popular Miami Showband were driving back to Dublin after a performance in Banbridge. In Buskhill (outside Newry), they were stopped at a checkpoint by Ulster Volunteer Force (UVF) gunmen wearing British Army uniforms. Some of the gunmen were soldiers from the Ulster Defence Regiment. The gunmen ordered the group to line up facing a trench. While one gunman took the names and addresses of the band members, two others hid a bomb under the driver's seat of their minivan. However, the bomb detonated prematurely and the two men were blown to pieces. The surviving gunmen then opened fire on the five band members, killing three and wounding two. [4] According to journalists Peter Taylor and Alan Murray, the attack on the Bayardo was retaliation for the massacre. (Source: Wikipedia)

The Bayardo Bar bombing occurred on 13 August 1975 in Belfast, Northern Ireland. A unit of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) led by Brendan McFarlane carried out a bomb and gun attack on a pub on Aberdeen Street in the loyalist Shankill area. IRA members claimed that 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, and over 50 people were injured. According to journalists Alan Murray and Peter Taylor, it was a reprisal for the Miami Showband massacre almost two weeks earlier, when members of the popular Dublin band were shot dead by the UVF at a fake military checkpoint. McFarlane and two other IRA volunteers, Peter "Skeet" Hamilton and Seamus Clarke, were sentenced to life imprisonment for carrying out the Bayardo attack. (Source: Wikipedia)

Beautiful castle with great hiking tours

A real gem of a coastal route considering just how close it is to Belfast. You can ride on through past the logistics base ( its just vehicles that cant ), and on to Holywood. At the beginning of the Coastal route, just after the Airport Road entrance there are wetlands, popular with migrating birds, and an inlet to the left where you will find the best collection of intact seashells I have seen. Perfect spot for a sunset too. And the row of different coloured Houses on the Esplanade are a real charm. You can continue on to Bangor via the North Down coastal path. That route is perhaps more suited to a Bike with at least 8 Gears, and Tyres no smaller than 25s. I have completed it on a Track Bike, but it was a bit of a bone shaker.

There is a great Pub / Restaurant on route, just passed The Esplanade called 'The Dirty Duck'. Boasts a Beer Garden with perfect vistas of the Lough and Cave Hill.
