Bangor




For the next location I travelled to was Bangor which is a city and seaside resort in County Down. I took a train from Botanic Station which took about 40 minutes which is a relatively short time to travel. It was a simple and easy travel experience with no troubles. When I arrived in Bangor I stayed over for the day and booked myself a room within a Premiere Inn hotel which was extremely close to the train station as it took about 10 minutes of walking in order to arrive at the hotel. I quickly packed away all of my luggage and headed deeper into the city of Bangor. 

The first activity I took part in was exploring Bangor's seafront which is a boat docking station with lots of different types of boats all stationed by the peer. I enjoyed this as I was able to get a close up look of various different kinds of boats which was extremely fascinating for me. I was also able to book a boat tour in which I was able to get on a boat and they would take me around whilst showing me the city of Bangor from the perspective of the water. It was truly a Beautiful experience in which I would give much praise to. 

The second part of my journey resulted in partaking in Kingsland Pitch and Putt which is a mini golf course which was entertaining enough for me to pass the time. It took me about an hour or so to actually complete it as I found it to truly be a challenge but it was very fun as It became quite a competitive environment once me and my friends started to compete with each other. 

After the golfing me and my friends took a trip on down to the Bangor castle which is very fascinating to look at as It offers great scenery. I was able to enter the Bangor castles museum which was interesting to learn about and it was surprisingly interactive as they allowed for individuals to wear various costumes from the era in which the castle was actually made. Around the castle has a lovely grass trail which I explored and found it truly fascinating to explore and it offers a great chance to bask in the nature that Bangor has to offer so I would highly recommend this just make sure to bring appropriate foot wear or it could ruin your shoes. 

Finally I visited the Omniplex in Bangor to watch a movie called the Substance which was a very good watch. I found this as a simple and cheap activity to do with friends. The cinema was within a close walking distance from the hotel I stayed in so this was a hassle free experience. After this I decided to call it a day and return to the hotel. 

Once I had woken I simply just packed all of my luggage and headed back to the train station to head home. This experience was great and I learned a lot of different things along the way so please give Bangor a go and stay updated everyone as I have a new adventure just around the corner.
