This area is named after Church of Ireland St Anne's Cathedral (belfastcathedral.org; adult/child £5/free; with audioguide £8). Its most striking feature is its titanium-clad spire, which can also be seen from inside, where it extends from the nave to emerge through a glass platform in the roof, rising 80m high.
The highlight of the self-guided tour is the baptistery, notable for its Romanesque-style ceiling mosaic of the Creation, made with 150,000 pieces of glass. Don't miss the Titanic Pall (cloth draped over a coffin), embroidered with some 1500 crosses in memory of those who died in the tragedy. The piece was created in 2012 to mark the centenary of the disaster; the indigo blue color evokes the night sky under which the ship went down. Allow around 30 minutes to look around.
