The country of Ireland is often referred to as the Emerald Isle. The heart of the country can be found in the capital city of Dublin. Dublin is embedded in powerful layers of history, tracing back to the times when Celtic tribes strolled the peat bogs, to the present day city that is bursting with chic bars and a happening nightlife. Dublin, however, is not the only city bursting with charm. The cities of Galway, Cork and Limerick also add to the flair of the country. If you want to find the picturesque Ireland of the movies, however, it requires a short trip out into the rolling countryside. Here, in the spirit of this ancient land, you will find quaint pubs and the renowned craic where music and song predominate the flow of an evening.
