Ireland

A green island nation filled with castles.

Ireland is an island nation located in the North Atlantic. It is the second largest island of the British Isles, the third largest in Europe. Ireland is bordered by the Atlantic Ocean, the Celtic Sea, the Irish Sea, and England. Its neighbors are Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland, and the Republic of Ireland.

There are many reasons to visit Ireland, including its absolutely stunning scenery, its rich history and culture, and its friendly people. Some interesting facts about Ireland include that it is home to the world's oldest book (The Book of Kells) and has more castles per square mile than any other country in the world.

The Irish cuisine is renowned for its hearty and flavorful dishes. Some examples of traditional Irish dishes include Irish Stew: A hearty stew made with lamb or mutton, potatoes, carrots, onions, and parsley, Colcannon: A creamy mashed potato dish containing kale or cabbage, and Barmbrack: A fruitcake traditionally made with raisins, currants, and sultanas.
