The Leaning Tower of Belfast.

In Belfast stands a fish so large, Made of steel and art, a true castle. Its blue shines in the sunlight, Its face a marine wonder. It swims in the cityscape, proud and free, A symbol of strength and harmony. People watch, marvel, laugh, And are awakened by the work of art. A sea spirit in the middle of the city, That shows what art and courage can do. The blue fish, so beautiful and clear, Remains wonderful in our hearts.

Anyone wanting to walk from the city center to the Titanic Museum will inevitably have to cross here. It's better than crossing the busy car bridge next to it.

The Lagan Weir Footbridge and Cycle Bridge is a suspended pedestrian bridge over the river. The bridge connects Donegall Quay and Queen's Quay.

Due to insufficiently compacted subsoil, the tower dedicated to Prince Albert has become "leaning." Despite repeated repairs, it is still one meter out of alignment in two directions. Hence the Leaning Tower of Belfast 😎
