Titanic Museum

This weekend I went on a trip to Northern Ireland with the Heritage Society and friends who wanted to tag along. We spent the night in Belfast, making a couple of stops at Heritage Sites on the all-day drive.
During our trip we saw the Titanic Museum, which was really cool. It was built next to the actual location where Titanic was built, and the museum was very well done.
Actual location of Titanic's creation
It gave me goosebumps as we learned about the ship's dream, creation, and downfall.

We were able to see what oceanographers saw as they explored the wreckage under water for the first time.


Looking down on what it became



Perspective on how far down Titanic rests today
The museum was very informational, and provided ways to honor all those who were never able to make it to America. I truly enjoyed my experience there.
