    Ireland is so beautiful and green that is known as The Emerald Isle. There are so many places to visit, but here you can find my favorites.

    1. Downtown Dublin: You can visit the capital in a day and see the most iconic places like Tinity College, Temple Bar, Stephen Green park, Phoenix Park, Guinness Store, Dublin Castle and many other places.

    2. Visit a Pub: this could be in any of Ireland's Cities, this is not just to have a drink, but to enjoy the Irish Live Band and the traditional songs. The vibre and the rhythm are amazing! Take the time to have fun.

    3. Howth: This is a small town close to Dublin that you can go by bus or dart. You can eat fresh fish and walk the cliffs.

    4. Cliff of Moher:  Step on to the edge of the world and see the rugged cliffs facing the mighty ocean. This Nature beauty is at the Galway City and you can go by bus or rent a car.

    5. Ring of Kerry: The heart of County Kerry, Rugged islands, white-sand beaches, dramatic mountain passes and a royal goat. This is a good place to visit during summer time, the days are longer and you will have time to enjoy the view. I suggest to rent a Car to discover sites off the beaten track.

    6. Glendalough: The Glendalough Valley is located in the Wicklow Mountains National Park and has many attractions to entice, entertain and enthral visitors, from its world famous Monastic Site with Round Tower to its scenic lakes and valleys, as well as a selection of walks and trails in the area including The Wicklow Way.

    8. Connemara: Connemara is a district in western Ireland, facing the Atlantic Its coastline has tiny coves, bays and fishing villages like Roundstone. Connemara National Park is a vast expanse of mountains, bogs, heathland and lakes. I suggest to rent a car and take your time to admire the nature.

    9. Donegal: This county is plenty of great mountains and lake-filled valleys fringed by the unpolluted seas of the Atlantic. Donegal is rich in heritage and folklore, a land that contains a wealth of cultural strengths, a strong sense of its own identity and uniqueness.

    10. Cork: This is the second biggest city in Ireland. The best way to see the city of Cork and sample the flavour of its life, is to walk. You must Visit the English Market, Blarney Castle (kiss the Blarney Stone), Fota Wildlife Park and many more places.
