HMS Belfast is a historic Royal Navy warship on the River Thames in London, now a museum. It played a major role in World War II, including at D-Day, and later in the Arctic convoys and Korean War. Visitors today can explore its nine decks, from gun turrets to engine rooms, and experience what life was like for sailors.
