Article Travel Leisure Tip

Ireland has become a secret hide-a-way for vacationers in the past 20 years
and there is plenty to do while in Ireland. In the early 1990’s
Ireland took an economic turn upwards
and the country began to establish itself with economic success. Since then immigration has increased from the European countries
Russia
and even Australia and the U.S. The well-hidden secret of the wealth that Ireland has to offer has begun to slip out.

Today
vacationers and those who just want a quick get-a way for a weekend or so
are coming to Ireland to experience the old town charm mixed with what the thriving metropolis has to offer. There is something to do for everyone between the ages of 1 and 101
and there’s always more to come back to.

Dublin
with almost 500
0
people
is the capital of Ireland.

Belfast
again close to 500
0
is the capital of Northern Ireland. Both of these huge cities began as shipping ports
through the Irish Sea
way back around 488AD
so they are filled with the charm and character of an old town
while being able to offer you all the comforts of a bustling city.

There are many cultural villages strewn throughout the country that offer experience
culture and very wonderful foods!

Museums
theaters
and sporting events

Plenty of shopping are available as well. And
it is some of the best that you will do anywhere.

With the mass transit system you and your family can easily reach any destination
or tour the town. The system itself is a thing to see and experience.

Restaurants and outdoor pubs spring up everywhere so you can always stop into one of these friendly taverns and get refreshment. Children are welcome almost everywhere and casual attire is accepted.

Of course
if you want to go out to a fine restaurant for dinner
and then go dancing till dawn
there is plenty of nightlife for you as well.

Ireland has the most beautiful beaches of anywhere
and Galway County on Galway Bay is a great place to enjoy some of the surf. Since Ireland is an island
there are a lot of sandy shores to see
but remember that the summer season is only from June to August
and then a light jacket might be necessary as you walk the shoreline. The waves
sun and the sand are enticing though
and the kids will just love to just go and have fun! So be certain to make at least one of your days in Ireland a beach day!

Then at the end of the day
what could be better than a fresh seafood dinner prepared specially for you
in any one of the many oceanside restaurants that line the coastal towns. You could drive from Dublin to Galway City in a matter of a couple of hours
and with the Atlantic ocean on the west side of Ireland
and the Irish Sea bordering the east side
you had better believe that the best in North Atlantic seafood is available for you!

The variety and charm of Ireland makes it the best get-a-way for your whole family
or just for two. Come and enjoy!
