Brilliant. I was born and bred in Belfast and it holds so many memories for me. Each little street, road, and shop reminds me of my childhood and of my parents and sister ( no longer with us ). Tears in my eyes as I watched. Thank you.

Belfast has fairly changed since I been in it. Remember years ago the old leisure world. The old cannon cinema. The old Smithfield market. And barricades in nearly every street patrolled by the British army. It's nice to see it's turned into a beautiful city. What that poor city had to put up with over the years it deserves it.

You might be surprised how much the city has changed even in the last 3 years, let alone 30 years. In the last 5 years a lot of the government departments moved from the city centre to the Industrial estates and provincial towns. The banking sector shrunk massively and you’ll be lucky to find one branch in the town let alone a half dozen of yesteryear. The contraction of retail in general, in favour of on line shopping, has hit Belfast hard. All this It certainly took some of the hustle and bustle out of the place long before covid ever quietened the streets. I’d really like to see the whole city centre pedestrianised, this would help the cafe culture massively with safe open spaces to walk, shop and enjoy the green spaces that could be reclaimed through pedestrianisation.

What surprised me the most is the European feel of the city. It's part of UK but somehow doesn't look anything like let's say Edinburgh or Glasgow for example. If it wasn't for the litter bins and the double-deckers I would bet it is somewhere in Europe.

Thanks for your comment, firstly there’s not so many people about because of COVID-19 etc.. it’s usually a lot busier. I’d say Belfast & Dublin would be equally as friendly as each other, Belfast has certainly taken off in recent years & will continue to do so. If you’ve never been before please visit, you won’t be disappointed.

Dublin City centre is for the most part laid out a few hundred years previous to Belfast - and so, along with the new developments since the troubles - Belfast city centre is newer. Dublin’s Docklands would be a better example of a newer area of Dublin. Also the city centre of Belfast is vastly commercial and the metropolitan area adds up to 670,000 - Dublin still retains a residential core in parts and has a metropolitan area of around 1.5 million. In terms of litter and rubbish however, yes - Belfast always seems to be kept cleaner.
