It is the second largest city in Northern Ireland. Situated on the banks of the scenic Foyle estuary, 115 km from Belfast, it has a population of over 100,000 people spread on both sides of the River Foyle. Its convenience to County Donegal in the Republic of Ireland and to the Antrim Coast makes it an ideal base for the tourist. Derry has a lot to offer the visitor who wishes not only to explore its rich historical background but to enjoy all the amenities of a modern city.
