Titanic museum in Belfast

We caught the train from Bangor to Belfast, getting off at the Titanic Quarter stop. From here a short 15 minute walk to the dockside and hence to the famous Titanic museum.
The museum commemorates the city of Belfast as being a huge centre of the 'linen' trade and then because of its large working population, became a centre of ship building. The constructor Harland and Wolf had a huge design and building business that lasted for many years until after the second world war. Their most famous ship was the Titanic.
The museum is in a modern building set on the side of the Lagan river which blends into the Belfast Lough. Set over five floors you can see all aspects of the ship being built until the aftermath investigations of the disastrous sinking.
