Lovely building and the freedom to do a small self-guided tour. Girl at welcome office very helpful. Well worth a walk around....
The Queen's University site has many wonderful examples of architecture, with so much history behind it including the extensive alumni who attended over the past 150+ years.
The building was so great, it remind us of Harry Potters Hogwarts School :D I didnt had a chance to enter the building though
The university was well appointed with signage to navigate your way as it is spread over a number of streets. we were lucky to get a parking space on the grounds behind the university & this made it easier to find our way about. Alot of history to be found very interesting a good day would love to go back up for a visit.
I have spent many days wandering around Queens and admiring the building and the grounds. It is well worth a visit and it can be a good place to sit and chill out.
My daughter is a student in Queens this year so I decided I had to visit. A very impressive building on the outside, it is smaller than I though on the inside. A lovely little gift shop with a very pleasant assistant in it. I guess I was expecting to see lecture rooms, many of them and long corridors with painting of former students but really it wasn't at all like that. We did see one of the lecture rooms which was very nice but nothing out of the ordinary. The outside is probably the best part of Queens to look at.
Queen's is close to the Ulster Museum and is well worth have a quick look round. Queen's is a red-bricked chocolate boxy building which takes good fotos if you bring your clapper board hat with you.
The building is interesting, and is right next to the Botanic Garden, that is also worth a visit (although not as spectacular as we might find in other places).
It was a grand walk in the September sunshine from City Hall to this fine institution. The frontage designed by Lanyon looked wonderful, so appealing. Walking past the Queen’s statue took us to the impressive spacious entrance hall. The most notable feature is the Belfast version of The Thinker. There is also a nice stained glass window. The Great Hall is very attractive with fine timber ceiling and many chandeliers. Around the walls are portraits of Chancellors, including George Mitchell who tirelessly worked with the political parties, leading to the Good Friday Agreement.The quadrangle area is a grand space, with well-kept lawns and benches. A number of sculptures are interspersed around the sides.
I have a photo presented to MD years ago for helping some students with manufacturing and production techniques so went just to see It's a lovely area with Historical buildings there are lots of things to see but really for those who have interest in the area
