Tips from the Community
The "Let the Dance Begin" sculptures are an imposing tribute to peace and culture on the border of Lifford and Strabane. These five giant steel figures – musicians and dancers – symbolize the connection between North and South. Locally, they are known as The Tinnies and form an indispensable modern landmark for any cyclist crossing the River Foyle.

The city wall can be walked all the way around the city and offers interesting views. You can see the churches, down to the Bogside, the main street with the bunkered court, and the beautiful Guildhall. You can also see the curbs of the different districts, which are colored according to their affiliation. While the scenery seemed a bit threatening on our first visit in the 1990s, this seems to have given way to a peaceful openness, the architectural expression of which has become the beautiful, curved, connecting Peace Bridge.

Dunluce castle is nice to see, but it is not located in the centre of Derry - the highlight here is completely wrong.

From Belfast International Airport, Derry is reached after a change in Antrim (15 min by bus) and 90 min by train. Right on the river, on the Waterside but close to a bridge that takes you to the other side, close to the center.
