Galway, Ireland

Galway is Ireland's fourth largest city and is considered to be the cultural capital of Western Island with music, festivals, horse racing, pubs, restaurants, shops and theatres. Galway is an ancient city but its medieval streets and pubs throng with a young, vibrant and cosmopolitan population.

Galway also acts as a gateway to some of the most popular destinations on Ireland’s western seaboard, including the cliffs of Moher, the Aran Islands, Connemara and the Gaeltacht area.

The Galway countryside boasts pretty villages, traditional pubs, mountains, castles and stone walls, banks of turf, long sandy beaches, clear lakes, streams and flowing rivers.
