About East Belfast
Van Morrison sang about it, Georgie Best kicked a ball around its streets, CS Lewis created Narnia here – East Belfast is as impressive as its three most famous sons, streets of Victorian terraces, grand sweeping avenues, leafy suburbs and some of Belfast’s most atmospheric villages making this a most diverse in the city.
Main routes like the Newtownards and Castlereagh Roads lead quickly from city centre to the County Down countryside. A good range of schools and some of Belfast’s most iconic attractions also add to the appeal.
