Cork

For a small town, Cork and full of resources!

Cork is the second largest city in Ireland after the capital Dublin. In recent years the citadel has undergone a major restyling and many restoration works, obtaining the title of European Capital of Culture in 2005. Divided in half by a river, as well as being beautiful it is also easy to get around. We recommend a walk along the banks of the Lee, especially at sunset, it will give you a truly fascinating show. Cork is a port city that has played a primary role in the history of Ireland. Once the transatlantic routes in this area were very numerous. Cobh, located in the back a few kilometers from the city, left thousands of Irish people fleeing from misery from the great famine in the years 1849-1850, a tragic episode that marked the collective memory causing the Irish diaspora in America. The small village is the image of Ireland as a whole, which has become cosmopolitan and attractive in a new look obtained in a few years. The largest zoo in Ireland is located at Fota Island, just 15 minutes from the city center. Patrick Street is a great street ideal for shopping, where you can satisfy your cravings. A little to the left, towards the Lee, you will see the renovated Crawford, an interesting contemporary art gallery. The English Market is a must for the search for local craftsmanship. Fans of pasteurized hops will be happy to know that they can visit the Beamish brewery, even if it is no longer active. Finally, don't miss the other side of the river, the historic church of Saint Anne Shandon (St. Anne's Church, Shandon Church).

Dublin

Dublin has a powerful aura and if it captures you, you will always be left wanting more. This is a great thing for a small capital.

Today, Dublin has one of the youngest populations in Europe, who frequent funky bars, sophisticated restaurants and the renovated city streets. However, in the contemporary urban landscape of Dublin it is still possible to find traditional pubs, nostalgic museums and even horse-drawn carts to take you down cobblestone streets.

Meanwhile, a myriad of historic attractions and museums, including Trinity College, Ireland's oldest university, and the Guinness Storehouse, make you feel like you are reliving history of this wonderful city.
