Loch Ney, the largest in the British Isles. The coastline is distinguished by its strong dissection and extends from the Loch Foyle Bay to the Morne Mountains. Coastal landscapes are very picturesque. The climate of Northern Ireland is temperate, with mild winters and cool summers. The amount of precipitation is quite large, with more precipitation in the west than in the east. Although Northern Ireland occupies an area of ​​14,138 square kilometers, Km, or 1/6 of the total area of ​​Ireland, but there is a third of the population of the island. The highest level of industrial development is also characteristic. The capital of Belfast is the main industrial center.
