Ireland Best Locations

Ireland is an island based in the northwest of Europe. Ireland is the third largest island in Europe. With this in mind it can be difficult to decide what sights to see. Below is a guide of some of Ireland’s best locations.

Bru na Boinne

Not a location at such, more a landscape. That said it is most certainly a landscape worth exploring. Bru na Boinne is littered with prehistoric monuments. The landscape can only be visited by an organised tour. Visitors should give themselves half a day to absorb this historic landscape.

The Burren

The Burren is based between the Aran Islands and the city of Galway. This sight has a feeling of emptiness and has been compared to that of a moonscape. Visitors can expect to see strange rock formations and ancient monuments. People who drive can also absorb some further sights by driving via Galway Bay.

The Hill of Tara

Once home to the High Kings of Ireland, this sight is now covered with grass. To understand the history behind the sight more there is an audiovisual shown in the disused church to help understand the history behind the sight.

Dublin

People have head of Dublin for a number of reasons. Not only is it a city who likes to enjoy the nightlife, it is also a city that embraces shopping into their lifestyle. Add to this the number of sights you can see within Dublin, it is definitely a city worth visiting.

Cliffs of Moher

This landscape gives visitors a smooth landscape before offering a drop measuring 650 feet, which leads down to the Atlantic. The area is famed for being one of the most spectacular coastal areas based in Europe. There is a visitor centre on sight which has been rebuilt, there is a price to pay for the visit, but it will be money well spent.
