★ Ha una sua storia della città
Tombs older than the pyramids, monks' books of gold, music in every town and a people who travelled the world.
Ireland is an island of green fields, cliffs and stone walls on the edge of the Atlantic. Its monks kept learning alive in the early Middle Ages, and its writers, from Swift to Joyce and Beckett, changed world literature. See the Book of Kells in Dublin, the gold of the Bronze Age at the National Museum and the paintings of Jack B. Yeats at the National Gallery. Plan your museum days on museumtickets.com, then find a session of traditional music and a warm slice of soda bread.
