HMS Belfast










HMS Belfast is a large and powerful light cruiser and the only surviving vessel of her type to have been active during the second world war. HMS Belfast served for 32 years playing important parts in the second world war, the Korean war and carrying out peace keeping duties. The ship is now part of the Imperial War Museum and is open to visitors. You can tour the ship with an audio guide at your own pace, following the arrows. There are staff to advise and help and many of them are veteran crew. They have waxworks on the ship that show you how each room would have been. We thought this was a really good museum and we think that you don't actually have to be too interested in naval history to enjoy this attraction.

Admission prices for Adults to HMS Belfast are £12.95
