Carrickfergus Castle
2024 Feb 03
SUPERB AND INTERESTING CASTLE!
Definitely worth a drive to visit this charming town and castle.
The outside is superb, lots of photos and videos to take. Inside, is an interesting look at the history of the castle and Carrickfergus itself.
You'll see the banqueting hall, King John's "Throne" (toilet), the King's Apartment and the chapel. Be sure to explore the bastions and the cannons, and you'll get amazing views from the top of the castle and along the walls.
You'll probably spend about an hour or 90 minutes here tops. But it's definitely worth the low entry price!

Antrim Castle

NOT A CASTLE!
I searched for 'attractions near me' and it pointed me out to Antrim Castle. But when I got there - all that's left is one corner of it. It's more of a castle ruins, and it won't take you long to see (about 30 seconds).
The castle gardens next to it are lovely and are worth seeing, but don't stupidly drive for 30 minutes just to see this place like I did. Fair warning.

Plaza de España

COOL PLAZA
Really cool town square, with modern architecture and interesting buildings. If you come during the day, there will be tour groups that hang around here, but otherwise it's a lot quieter than the rest of Madrid.

Temple of Debod

GOOD BUT VERY LONG WAIT TIMES!
The Temple has been shipped over brick by brick from Egypt to the centre of Madrid. It's amazing to look at from the outside, but because they only allow 10 people in at a time, the line to see the inside is incredibly long (had to wait 90 minutes).
If you're short on time, just see it from the outside, but if you can spare an afternoon in a queue, the inside is pretty amazing.

Piccadilly Theatre

SASSY!
I was apprehensive at first. As a prude, I thought it’d be too racy for my liking, but it’s a musical that’s tastefully done. The best thing is the ingenious screenplay itself, which seamlessly blends modern songs from Adele, Tina Turner etc. to weave this centuries old play to modern life.
You’ll sing along to the music, you’ll dance in your seat and the ensemble cast (particularly the male and female leads) is as good as any you’ll find out there.
Theatre itself is nice and easy to find in the heart of Piccadilly Circus.
If you can score good tickets, it’s definitely worth the watch.
