Is Galway cool? ALL
1. For sitting on the city dock accompanied by young Irish students and tourists who chat, drink quietly and watch the sun set on the horizon, where you can sometimes see the aran islands . It's a quiet time away from the crowds that throng the downtown streets in the summer months.

two. Through the pubs, with their beer, oh, beer (in blondes, you have to ask for a Hooker), and also a little – quite a lot – for pub food. It is empirically proven that the ' fish and chips' and other indefinable substances in batter only reach their flavorful zenith in an Irish pub with dark wood and colored glass, but in the real ones, not in the more or less successful imitations that have spread throughout the world with a success and acceptance that laugh at the Starbucks.

3.**By the Cliffs of Moher **. Your hour and a half away will be short when you arrive, because if there is a spectacular and representative place on the Irish coast, this is it. We know there's nothing funny about suicide, but we can't help but find the posters of "Need to talk?" followed by a telephone number that are planted near the abyss, to try to make those who have decided to leave the world by taking a spectacular leap change their plans at the last moment.

Four. For taking a tour of the county of Connemara, to the north. Both its coast and the interior, dotted with beautiful villages (Oughterard, Clifden or Roundstone, for example), are perfect for hiking between moors and lake shores. And, if the weather is good, there are even virgin beaches. We even have an unforgettable lodging suggestion.
5. For the music and the unique atmosphere that is created in traditional Irish music venues. Galway's Tig Cóilí is the favorite of local musicians and we all know that this is a guarantee of fun.

6. Through the nearby Aran Islands, which are the epitome of that slightly wild nature that is so often identified with the classic image of the country. The Celtic ruins of Dún Aengus They are the most emblematic monument, although what is really worth it is to tour any of the islands by bicycle and soak up the wind, waves and sheep, the ones responsible for the world fame of the islands for their wool with which these are made. fat, heavy jumpers that are as classic as they are timeless.
