Northern Ireland is the smallest country in Britain, and is situated in the northeast corner of Ireland. Northern Ireland's size makes it easy to travel around - once you've established a base, you can visit the country's main attractions on easy day trips. For sheer variety of landscape, the country feels bigger than it is; breathtaking mountains and glens, World Heritage Sites and an inland sea - everything's packed neatly together.
Northern Ireland is steeped in history, culture and myth. As well as being one of the country's biggest attractions, the Giant's Causeway and the Causeway Coast is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. And you'll also find a number of historical abbeys and priories, gardens, stately homes and national parks all around the country.
There are countless must-see attractions in Northern Ireland. The Causeway Coast is home to some of the country's most popular attractions, including the Giant's Causeway and the Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge. The historic walled city of Londonderry is an attraction in itself; its setting, architecture and famous walls make a great day out.
