Ireland's second city has always had impressive sense of pride. In 2005 Cork was designated European Capital of Culture.  Modern glass-and-steel buildings grace the banks of the River Lee. Galleries, arts festivalsbars and shops add to the city's charm, and restaurants flourish to make Cork a paradise for lovers of fine food.

Speaking of food, for a great breakfast try the Farmgate Café, located in the famous English Market.  Later, after you have worked up a thirst, visit the Franciscan Well Brewery for a cool beer. 

If you are interested in impressive, but affordable art, don't miss the Fenton Gallery on Wandesford Quay and Buckley Fine Art on Fenns Quay. 

A must-see for visitors to Cork is Blarney Castle, just 8 miles from the city proper.   Built nearly six centuries ago by Cormac McCarthy, one of Ireland's greatest chieftains, it is known the world over for its "Blarney Stone".  Kissing the Blarney Stone for luck is an age old tradition.  Blarney Castle is a sight worth seeing with its imposing structures and beautiful gardens. 

Don't miss Rock Close, an enchanted spot where a natural terrace hangs above the river waters as they flow peacefully below.  Here, nature and art go hand in hand.  The wishing steps invite you to climb up and take with you the hope that your fondest dreams will come true.
