    Getting TO/AROUND: Translink provide our buses and trains.
    The City Bus Service is called The Metro

    A Day ticket currently costs £2.00 - you can travel around until midnight on the day of purchase - keep a hold of that ticket!
    Just purchase it from your driver.

    If you are just making one journey the cost is £1.20

    Or you can get a Smartlink Card if you are staying longer, this is a credit card type thing and you buy it from the Kiosk in Donegall Square West which is just opposite the City Hall if you were facing the City Hall it's on your right.

    Trains are through NI Railway - all info on the translink website it is very useful with timetables etc, and you can work out how long it will take to get to your destination and what method you should use!

     I sincerely hope you weren't suggesting that the lack of public toilets in Belfast is in some way ameliorated by the plethora of telephone boxes? ;-)    		dsantosh Wed Jun 22, 2005 09:30 UTC
     Many many happy returns of the day and a great party time. Greetings from India.
