How many people pass through the streets of Belfast, the capital of Northern Ireland, every day, but few of them will be aware that there is a 170-year-old secret hidden under its feet. Flows just below this sparkling city, the Farset River. The city has been named Belfast after the name of this river. This river also has an important role in the promotion and prosperity of Belfast. Today this river has disappeared from the eyes of the world and flows silently under the ground. Ireland's ancient history professor and author of 'River of Belfast: A History', Des O'Reilly, says that if anyone is asked about this river in the city's commercial center High Street today, one might answer. Today people have forgotten that the Farset River gave Belfast a chance to flourish in the shape of the city.

Today, where the most prosperous areas of the city are inhabited by the High Street and Victoria Street, there was once the mouth of the River Lagan and Farset River. Today there is the famous St. George's Church. But this church is also built on the site of an ancient church. It is said that 800 years ago, devotees used to come here to pray. They wished to cross the Farset river safely. Since marshy soil was often deposited at the mouth of this river and the water flow was fast. When the water waves weakened, only then boats were run in it.

In 1600, people from Scotland and England, who believed in the Protestant religion of Christianity, started coming here. On seeing this, he started building ghats on the Farset river. There are big shops in the High Street today, but there was a time when ships used to sail here. Big ships used to stop at these ghats. In which alcohol, spices, and tobacco were loaded. According to Frankie Mellon, an engineer with the Northern Ireland Department of Infrastructure River, only 2 members of the department have been allowed to go inside it ever since the river has been inundated. Melon explains that the kind of thin bricks made of arches on the river is only half a meter thick. Wooden pegs have been placed on them. The use of such technology was quite difficult in 1800. The good thing is that even after so much time has passed, it is safe. There is only a small crack in one part from where the water is seeping. Mellon says that years ago, his ancestors had come to work in Ireland's linen factory using this river, and then settled here. There are many stories related to this river. Mellon considers himself lucky that he can see the river that settles him in Ireland. But the upcoming breeds may not even hear its name.
