Why go
The Ulster Museum is part of National Museums NI and stands in Belfast's Botanic Gardens, on Stranmillis Road. Its own pages say it explores the past, the present and the future through collections of art, natural science and history, with displays including Ancient Ireland, the Troubles and the story of Belfast's Egyptology collection. The visit page has separate booking information for groups of 15 or more, and says that keeping to its visitor regulations is a condition of entry. Exhibitions change, so check the museum's site for what is on. This record is the museum, not its building as a separate item and not the Ulster Folk Museum or Ulster Transport Museum.
