The Coasts of Ireland S01E05 - Northern Ireland

For centuries Northern Ireland has been the scene of bloody battles. Nearly all residents of Northern Ireland have a personal relationship with the conflict between Catholic Republicans and Protestant Loyalists. But the north of Ireland offers much more than separation and street battles. Along the impressive cliffs rare birds can be seen and one can climb the enigmatic Giant's Causeway. In the back country we meet people who pursue unique activities. And in Northern Ireland's capital Belfast the wounds of the "troubles" are gradually beginning to heal. Belfast with its impressive seaport, lively city life and modern architecture is one of the most exciting cities in Europe.
