Land of Legends Ireland

Posted at 03:54 on 2008-Feb-21

Although there is archaeological evidence of habitation during the Stone and Bronze ages, the pre-Christian era in Ireland is known chiefly through legend. In about the 4th century BC, the tall, redhaired Celts from Gaul or Galicia arrived, bringing with them the Iron Age. They subdued the Picts in the north and the Érainn tribe in the south, and then settled down to establish a Gaelic civilization, absorbing many of the traditions of the previous inhabitants. By the 3rd century AD, the Gaels had established five permanent kingdoms - Ulster, Connacht, Leinster, Meath (North Leinster), and Munster with a high king, whose title was often more than honorary.

Today, Ireland is a beautiful country filled with history and legends. It can deliver a host of activities along the way, from the bright lights of Dublin, Cork, Galway, Limerick, Kilkenny and Waterford in the Republic of Ireland, and Belfast, Londonderry, Newry, Lisburn and Armagh in Northern Ireland to the breathtaking countryside in between.

To visit and stay in Ireland Hotels can be a beautiful and memorable experience. Dublin Hotels, Cork Hotels, Belfast Hotels and  Galway Hotels are very much available, giving world-class quality services.

Soon, if I have enough resources, Ireland would be one place I wouldn’t think twice to see myself.
