videos, transcripts & photos at townsofeurope.... Galway, Connemara and Aran Islands in the west of Ireland and nearby sights. Galway is a lovely town, perfect for strolling along cobble-stone lanes lined with artisans shops, but even more attractive is the adjacent Connemara Peninsula, with Kylemore Abbey and Clifden, which we will thoroughly explore together.

The essence of Irish landscape is the beauty-of green fields bounded by miles of rock walls; ancient stone houses with thatch roofs; cows and sheep wandering freely. This is a wild region of mountains, lakes, tumbling streams, undulating peat bogs, unspoiled beaches, and panoramic views. It is a Gaelic-speaking region that has maintained its traditional character and kept the modern world at bay. The musical accent of the friendly locals will charm your heart in a way you can never forget.
The west of Ireland has for generations been considered one of the most beautiful parts of Ireland and it seems that the beauty of the Connemara scenery is matched by the demeanor of its inhabitants. Galway has been voted the friendliest city in the world in a recent poll.
When you are in Clifden, stop by All Things Connemara for some Irish gifts, or to rent a bicycle for the day.
