Northern Ireland is not a part of Ireland, it is actually a part of the United Kingdom along with England, Scotland, and Wales. Yes, you read that right! For years and years, Northern Ireland has been in a fix whether it should remain a part of the United Kingdom or become part of Ireland. Belfast is the capital of Northern Ireland, and it has a castle in the city centre and ships in the middle of the high street. In 1971, Led Zepplin gave their legendary live debut of 'Stairway to Heaven' here at the Ulster Hall. Northern Ireland's history has been stained by 'The Troubles', it was a period in which sectarian violence left more than 3,600 people dead over 3 decades. Since 1998, after the signing of 'Good Friday' agreement, Northern Ireland has been as safe as anywhere else in Europe. North Ireland is home to the good old Guinness but up north there are many delectable drinks to slurp. One of them is Bushmills Irish whiskey, the world's oldest whiskey distillery formed in 1608. Finally, as the feelings of sobriety swoon, tackle the fear of heights by scaling the world-famous Giants Causeway Coastal Route and feel the Game of Thrones vibes at Dunluce Castle.
