Bushmills is a village on the north coast of County Antrim, Northern Ireland. Bushmills is located 60 miles from Belfast, 11 miles from Ballycastle and 9 miles from Coleraine. Bushmills owes its name to the River Bush and to a large watermill that was built there in the early 17th century.
The village is best known as the location of the Old Bushmills Distillery. The distillery's products include the Bushmills Original and Black Bush blends, as well as the 10-, 12-, 16-, and 21-year-old Bushmills Single Malts. To celebrate the 400th anniversary of distilling starting in the area the distillery released a unique whiskey called the 1608 which included crystal malt. The distillery draws its water, not from the River Bush itself, but from a tributary known as Saint Columbs Rill. The Giant's Causeway, which attracts over two million visitors per year, is located 2 miles (3.2 km) north of the town.
Bushmills railway station opened on 28 January 1883, but finally closed on 1 October 1949. There is a narrow-gauge steam train running in the summer from Bushmills to the Giant's Causeway.
The Belfast-Derry railway line run by Northern Ireland Railways connects to Coleraine and along the branch line to Portrush. Local Ulsterbus provides connections to the railway stations. There is a scenic walk of 7 miles from Portrush alongside Dunluce Castle and the Giant's Causeway and Bushmills Railway.
The Giant's Causeway is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns, the result of an ancient volcanic eruption. It is located in County Antrim on the north coast of Northern Ireland, about three miles (4.8 km) northeast of the town of Bushmills.

If you went online in order to search for the different places which you could visit in Belfast, you will always find the Giant's Causeway from the different suggestions that are found out there and that is exactly when all these different questions start to pop up so that people could know more about the destination they are heading to (
The Giant's Causeway is an area of about 40,000 interlocking basalt columns which resulted from an ancient volcanic eruption and which is located in county Antrim, northeast the town of Bushmills. This place always amazes the visitors who come to check it for the way those rocks are formed - or the way they have landed - since the tops of the columns form stepping stones that lead from the cliff foot and disappear under the sea (
The Giant's Causeway Visitor Centre opened in 1986 and the different facilities which could be now found there include the tourist information offices, the Bureau De Change, the accommodation booking service, an interpretive audio-visual presentation, as well as the gift shop - so there are different services which those going to check the site could make use of in general, making the whole place much more touristic and willing to accept different visitors (
As much as this is regarded as a different place that one could visit in Northern Ireland, it was actually regarded as the fourth greatest natural wonder in the United Kingdom in 2005 poll of Radio Times Readers. The Giant's Causeway was actually declared a World Heritage Site by UNESCO in 1986 and a national nature reserve in 1987 by the Department for the Environment for Northern Ireland (
There are interesting information which we got the chance to know about apart from the history of the place and the formation of those volcanic rocks. The Giant's Causeway is actually a haven for sea birds such as fulmar, petrel, cormorant, shag, redshank guillemot, and razorbill; this actually makes walking in this area trying to explore it much more interesting for seeing those sea birds along the way as well. In addition to the sea birds, we also found out that there are some plants which survived the feet of millions of visitors and which include the sea spleenwort, hare's foot trefoil, vernal squill, sea fescue, and frog orchid; this makes the whole place much more interesting for botanists who in summer could also check the great stretches of sea campion.
We believe that the Giant's Causeway is not just an important touristic attraction that should be visited in Northern Ireland by those visiting the country, but it is actually a place for the locals as well who are interested in the different types of birds as well as those botanists or even other people interested in plants to come and see what this place has to offer.
For those who will succeed to come to the Giant's Causeway and check this wonder in county Antrim in Northern Ireland, there are still other things which they should be doing, such as going to the Bushmills Distillery ( checking Bushmills town in general ( visiting the famous old Dunluce Castle ( and checking the old Carrick-A-Rede Rope Bridge which is a thrilling experience for lots of people (
It is always interesting to reach out for those famous destinations in the city you are traveling to and come back with lots of pictures - which is definitely one of the things which you should never forget to do when it comes to the Giant's Causeway - take pictures in this place of wonder.
Have you ever been to the Giant's Causeway before to check this place which is considered from the wonders of the UK? The Giant's Causeway is welcoming tourists and visitors all day long - of course apart from night trips - and the visitor centre could provide them with all the information they might be searching for. There are loads of places to stay around the Giant's Causeway - from camping, B&B to youth hostels all the way to hotels.

Causeway Coast Way - walk from Portrush to Giant's Causeway
5/25/2015
The day began with an early train ride from Belfast to Castlerock. I was hoping to have a quick walk to Downhill Demesne and Mussenden Temple before heading back east to Giant's Causeway where I'll spend two nights. But it was so gloomy and the Demesne just didn't look attractive at all. So I returned to the train and headed to Portrush. After getting my food supply at Portrush and wandering around for a couple of hours, I arrived at the west end of a long, beautiful beach shared by surfers, lifeguards, and dog-walkers. The sky cleared, and I started my 8-mile walk from this gorgeous beach to Giant's Causeway. After the beach the trail joins road traffic but still stays close to the coast. The last section of the trail crosses over a beautiful golf course and follows the old Bushmills Railway to the entrance of Giant's Causeway
