Belfast International Airport (BFS) Maps: Important City Districts
The most important area of Belfast is the city centre and this area contains many prominent local buildings. Belfast city centre features two separate postcodes, which are based around the City Hall, with BT1 covering the northern side, and BT2 the southern region. This part of the city is the main area of commerce and is based around Donegall Street. Highlights in Belfast city centre include the Cathedral Quarter (around St. Anne's Cathedral), Royal Avenue, Donegall Place and many riverside attractions.

The Belfast area has absorbed a number of small towns and villages over the years. As a result of this expansion, many of these areas are now home to distinct neighbourhoods and communities. Close to the city centre, the Golden Mile lies along Great Victoria Street and near to the university, being full of places to eat and drink. Outside of the city, County Antrim lies to the north, while County Down can be found to the south.
