places to visit in Ireland

Next, I show you these unmissable places to visit in


the fantastic land of Érie, as Ireland is also known, a
country full of magic but also of opportunities.
1. Dublín
The capital city of Ireland is one of the most beautiful, active
and mystical in the country. Dublin is located on the east coast
of Ireland and is the perfect combination of city bohemia and
living nature; reflected, for example, in the parks of the bay.

One of Dublin's most famous attractions is the Guinness


Storehouse, the historic brewery that was built in 1904. You
can also visit St. Patrick's and Holy Trinity Cathedrals.

Then, enjoy more beer in the legendary The Temple Bar, visit
the many museums there or simply take a walk looking at the
River Liffey. The latter divides the city into two halves. Any
activity is captivating thanks to the magic that Dublin has in
every corner.
2. Cork
Cork is one of the quietest cities, despite being the second
most populous city in Ireland. Located to the southwest on the
River Lee, and forming a small island as an urban area, the
main characteristic of Cork is its peace. To the point of giving
you the feeling of being in a small town with little noise from
horns and people walking carefree.

You can easily explore the center on foot. Among the main
places you can visit is the Victorian Quarter, where the famous
McCurtain Street is, ideal for art and bohemian lovers, or
simply for those who like colors and a relaxed cultural
atmosphere.
3. Wicklow Mountains
From the cities, we move on to nature and the fresher air in the
mountain range that runs from north to south through the
south-east of Ireland. On your Wicklow Mountains tour, you'll
come across other wonders such as Guinness Lake, Glencree
Valley and Glendalough County Nature Reserves.

As an additional fact for movie lovers, several scenes from


Braveheart, directed by and starring Mel Gibson, and P.S. I Love
You, by Richard LaGravenese. In short, a mandatory stop for
romantic couples or for lovers of nature and the beauty of
Ireland in its purest state. Tours depart from Dublin and take
around an hour to arrive.
4. Giants Causeway
The Giant's Causeway or Giant's Causeway is a mandatory stop
if you travel along the eastern coast. Located in County Antrim,
this natural wonder owes its origin to the rapid cooling of
volcanic lava that must have become stagnant in a coastal
slope.

This phenomenon happened about 60 million years ago and


formed about 40 thousand basalt columns with geometric
shapes.

According to legend, two giants, the Irish Finn and the


Scotsman Bennandoner constantly fought by throwing rocks at
each other and formed a bridge with them. The versions of the
legend are very diverse and the most beautiful of them would
be to hear them from the locals themselves. You can not lose
this.
5. Clonmacnoise Abbey
Ireland never ceases to amaze with the amount of history it
contains in every place you go. Clonmacnoise Abbey is another
clear example of this.

It is a monastic complex of the first Christians in the region that


currently functions as a museum and complex of ruins that
preserves the mystique of religion, since it was a place where
many European monks came as part of their training.

The place is halfway between Dublin and Galway and to get


there it is necessary to have private transport.
