Accompany me on a very poignant journey into 3 decades of conflict, especially exploring the recent one known as 'THE TROUBLES'. This tour will take a very in depth look of both conflict and peace using the famous Belfast murals as our backdrop. We'll be visiting these amazing political murals adorning the walls in both Catholic and Protestant neighbourhoods. As our tour is carried out, I'll share the stories that the murals speak of so you can become acquainted with our context and culture. I'll also point out to important buildings which survived the conflict, as we stop at each for an in-depth narrative. Besides this, you'll have the opportunity to sign your name on the biggest peace wall and stand in the shadow of its presence. Rest assured that you'll have all your questions answered by me, a capable local guide.
·Our tour will start with a pick-up from any city centre accommodation or the port. ·I'll then proceed to provide you with an easy to understand introduction to our conflict to contextualize you properly. ·We'll then travel along the Falls road and see its murals, some of which depict figures such as Frederick Douglass and George W. Bush. ·Next, we'll cover the murals in Shankill road, including one commemorating the Shankill bombing and one depicting Oliver Cromwell, who's argued to be one of the most important figures in the history of the British Isles. ·We will be visiting each mural and stopping by them as I provide you with a narrative explaining the story that inspired them. ·Later we will reach the Peace wall, where you'll get to sign your name on! ·Finally we'll cross over the political /religious divide through the separating peace gates, walls and barriers. ·At last we'll returning to the city centre pick up point at the end of tour.
