The black taxi political tour of Belfast
The city’s murals, walls and recent history, seen from the back of a black cab.
What the tour is about
A political tour of Belfast looks at how the city’s divided past still shapes its streets. The murals painted on gable walls, the walls and gates between some neighbourhoods, and the memorials that mark what happened there all tell part of the story.
Seeing them from a black taxi puts all of this right outside the window, with the stories behind each one told as you go. It is a way to understand the Troubles and the peace process through the places themselves.
