If you enjoy history, good storytelling, walks with great views, the macabre, having a laugh, or chatting with nice people then a tour of Derry City Cemetery with Seamus Breslin is a must if you are visiting Derry. It was one of the highlights of our very enjoyable time in Derry. Go ahead and book a tour, you won't regret it!

The drive up to Gortmore from Downhill is exciting to say the least. Low gear and a very steep road with blind bends make it a road to be careful on. Eventually it is worth it when you reach the viewpoint. There are stunning views over to Donegal, up Lough Foyle towards Londonderry and down the North Coast as far as the Giants' Causeway. Even on a warm calm day at sea level the wind at Gortmore is keen and cool.

Quick stop off to see the old church. Lovely views and worth a quick stop. Steep so not suitable for a pram but small enough to carry young children. Not much parking but there was no one there when we visited.

The oldest building in Derry it has much history. It was from this church that Alexander's Hymns emanates. Mrs Alexander was wife of a minister here and started writing children's songs and eventually hymns which have become part of Protestant Church hymnody for over a century. The building is grand with a historic section where photos are not allowed

This monument was especially poignant since the first victim's name was the father of our tour guide that morning.

We are talking about a place not in Africa nor in South America, we are talking about a place in Europe where a certain kind of people couldn't vote nor to have a job. This place is called Derry (someone goes on calling it Londonderry) and is situated in the North of Ireland. If you go there, visit it and you will realize how liberty and rights can established and defended.
