You may be questioning my wisdom at naming the Victoria Square shopping centre as one of the best free attractions on the Belfast stop of the Summer 09 UK Blogging Tour. This is not becuase I’ve morphed into a shopaholic but because it’s an interesting recent construction with great views from the free observatory platform in the dome.

There are several restaurants and bars in Victoria Square, many with seating outside the premises, which on a sunny day almost feels like sitting outside because of all the light streaming in through the glass dome. I had a very tasty lunch at La Tasca Spanish Tapas Restaurant
