A bustling food market with delicacies from oysters to olives, sushi to crubeens (a local delicacy of pig's feet!), this is one of a kind in Ireland. Serving locals and visitors since 1788, it never fails to impress.
The main street of the city was originally a waterway back when Cork was known as 'the Venice of the North'. Now, with its department stores and local shops, it leads off to colorful lanes full of cafes, restaurants and pubs
The area of Shandon with the magnificent ancient St. Anne's Church and bells, the Butter Exchange, the Firken Crane is a delight. Full of character and history, this neighborhood is a unique gem.
Home to Bishop Lucey Park, the National Monument, the Berwick Fountain, the city library, and our own Michael Collins; a stroll down the statuesque Grand Parade is a walk through history.

About Cork
Cork is Ireland's second city, a river town of steep lanes, a covered market, church bells and a strong food reputation.
Cork centres on an island in the River Lee, with channels of water, bridges and a mix of Georgian streets and Victorian shopfronts. The English Market, a covered food hall that dates to 1788, sells fish, cheese, spiced beef and baked goods. St Anne's Shandon has a tower topped by a golden salmon, and visitors can ring its bells. St Fin Barre's Cathedral rises in the French Gothic style.
