A huge new visitor attraction is opening in Belfast, Northern Ireland, all about the Titanic ship, that tragically sank 100 years ago.

Titanic Belfast includes galleries and reconstructions of what the ship looked like inside. Building work took three years - the same length of time it took to build the Titanic itself.

The highlight is this 10,000 piece replica of the Grand Staircase inside the Titanic.

There'll be galleries telling the Titanic's story, from when the idea for the ship was first thought of in Belfast in the early 1900s, to the sinking in 1912 and then re-discovery of its wreck.

It all cost 拢90 million to make. From the windows, the area in Belfast where the Titanic ship was built can be also seen.
