Cork--better than Dublin?!

Ever heard of Ireland’s second biggest city? I know most people can only name Bono, Dublin, leprechauns and Guinness when asked about Ireland, but Cork’s actually a pretty cool city.

It’s relatively small and we basically walked all over the city throughout the weekend and it only takes about 20 minutes to see most of it. But it’s got great pubs/restaurants, fun spirit and great towns nearby.

So if you’re ever in Ireland, check out the west—Cork (and maybe even Limerick/Galway) and its surrounding towns (including Ballycotton)—over just simply going to the main tourist destination in the east, Dublin.
