History, nature and a dash of intrigue, let"s introduce you to one of Northern Ireland"s major attractions, the Stormont Estate, right on the outskirts of Belfast. Established in the early nineteenth century, the estate is home to the main Parliament Buildings. From vibrant rose gardens to majestic trees, this place has it all. Feeling active? Stormont Estate has an extensive network of walking and cycling trails and there are fantastic play areas for little ones to burn off some energy. Bring your furry friend along; there"s even a designated dog park. Fun fact: CS Lewis, the author of "The Chronicles of Narnia," was inspired by the enchanting landscapes of Northern Ireland. If you"re lucky, you might just stumble upon the entrance to Narnia!
