Synopsis

Lush green pastures and heather-covered mountains, wildly romantic moors, dramatic coastal cliffs and miles of sandy beaches - the "Emerald Isle" is famous for its stunning scenery. But Ireland is also known for its cultural heritage, rich in folklore and legends. Ancient monuments are scattered across the land, from Neolithic tombs and Celtic crosses to medieval monasteries and imposing fortresses. In contrast are the vibrant, cosmopolitan cities, some of the most dynamic in Europe. And what would a visit to Ireland be without experiencing the warmth and hospitality, music and banter of the Irish at one of their pubs?
