Rebecca Black talks to Dr Adrian Johnston, chairman of the International Fund for Ireland, about his battle to bring down walls - both physical and in terms of entrenched attitudes.

We were in a black taxi tour. Our guide was incredible. We learned so much. We ended our tour signing the Peace Wall. It's an important piece of history in Northern Ireland and I'm glad I had the chance to contribute:

We took the black taxi tour. Our driver, Jim, lived through the troubles and gave us a very balanced view of Protestant and Catholic perspectives. Was eye opening to see all of the bonfires being built for the 7/11 celebrations.

Highly recommend seeing the wall.

User

Very moving and powerful. We must never forget 😥

User

Quiet street with full stretch of graffitis from one end to the other with easy parking options on the same street if you're not going much far away from your vehicle

User

People need to know the people behind the headlines whose lives are still working through the trauma

User

My favourite part of our trip to Ireland ... A must to see .

User

It is very moving, beautiful and mesmerizing. Much to view.

User

Impressive, frightning, justice and hope

User

I was awesome. I thought I knew the extent of the issues between Northern Ireland and the republic but seeing the memorials and wall made everything much clearer.

User

I recommend the trip here with a Political Black Taxi Tour. A wee bit of education and history that is thoroughly enriching. This was by far the best experience of my life. And I will go back again in a heart beat...

User

Hope for the future and respect for those who witnessed the troubles

User

Do the black cab tour and stop and write in the wall !

User

Beautiful! I was moved by it! Wishing you all peace!

User

Beautiful and terrible.

User

Awesome piece of recent and current history. So glad we got to experience this on our recent trip to Belfast!

User

A must see! The raw emotion resonates at Peace Wall! The Black taxi tour guide was unbelievably knowledgeable and passionate about this. I would recommend this to anyone��

User

It's worth making a visit! But nothing so special, Northern Ireland has many more better places to visit!!!

User

I didn't see much of it was just dropping my passengers off to see it but that's how I remember Northern Ireland

User

Getting a better understanding of the situation cause's one to pause.
