Bucket list at the ready – prepare to tick off some must-see landmarks on your trip to the city.

It goes without saying that a visit to Derry isn’t complete without taking a walk on our 17th century City Walls. A walk around the Walls reveals a splendid city crammed full of history, heritage and a vibrant cultural scene.

The Peace Bridge is another must-see attraction, built in 2011, the Peace Bridge is a cycle and foot bridge across the River Foyle and connects two side of the city. The elegant snaking curves of the bridge tells a story of triumph over adversity and is a symbol of peace. It has become a Walled City icon since its inception.

Head over to see our world famous People’s Gallery in the Bogside area of the city. There, you’ll see twelve large scale murals. You'll also see our iconic Free Derry Corner, a historical landmark that lies in the intersection of the Lecky Road, Rossville Street and Fahan Street.

But of course, a trip to the city just isn’t complete without hanging out with the Derry Girls! Discover the gigantic mural, by UV Arts, on the side of Badgers Bar in the city – it is worthy of a selfie, or two!
