Let the Dance Begin

A story that makes an impression when you walk through it.

From Belfast International Airport, Derry is reached after a change in Antrim (15 min by bus) and 90 min by train. Right on the river, on the Waterside but close to a bridge that takes you to the other side, close to the center.

Great stop for food and coffee on the road to Derry

In Bigside, a district of Derry that can be seen from the high city walls, the memory of Bloody Sunday is still very much alive. At the foot of the city walls you will find the low gabled structure that can be seen in the background of the historical photos.

The Peace Bridge is a striking pedestrian and cycle bridge spanning the River Foyle. Opened in 2011, the bridge serves as a symbol of unity, connecting the city's Protestant and Catholic communities. Its distinctive, sweeping design by architect WilkinsonEyre has garnered international acclaim.

This traffic-free cycle path runs alongside the River Foyle, and is part of the Foyle Valley cycle route connecting Derry City to the border towns of Lifford and Strabane. The River Foyle is 80 miles long (129 km) and is one of the fastest flowing rivers in Europe for its size.

Situated on a site adjacent to the Strabane bypass, the 'Let the Dance Begin' sculpture by Maurice Harron is an ensemble of five stainless steel and bronze figures. Commissioned by the former Strabane District Council in collaboration with the Strabane Lifford Development Commission, this artwork symbolises the transition to the new millennium. The statues, standing at an impressive height of approximately 30 foot (10 m) have affectionately been named "The Tinnies" by the locals.
