Belfast Castle is lovely.. but it's tiny.  It's more like a fancy stone house.  I come from Kent, which has thirty-two castles so I was always going to be tough to impress.  Belfast Castle does have one thing I've never seen before, a cat garden!  A legend states Belfast Castle will always be safe so long as there is a white cat residing there and so this myth led to the creation of the cat garden with nine hidden (stone, topiary, and mosaic) cats.
