2 . With so many Ireland’s cities, charming small towns and countryside wonders to choose from, it may be hard to decide exactly what should be on your route. Here are four best places to visit in Ireland.
Cork
Cork is the largest county in Ireland. Located at the southwestern end of the country, this city of more than 200, 000 residents is famous for being home to the Blarney Stone. According to local legend, the stone will give you the gift of eloquence(流利的口才), if you dare kiss it.
Killarney
For the Irish countryside experience, travel to Killarney. The town is surrounded by evergreen hills and valley on all sides, affording plenty of opportunities to become one with nature. Visitors are attracted by Killarney National Park, which features Ireland’s highest mountain range, MacGillycuddy’s Reeks.
Dublin
If you only have time to visit one place in Ireland, go to Dublin. Not only is Dublin the country’s center for politics, culture and music, but it also offers easy access to Blarney Castle, one of Ireland’s top points of interest. While here, do as the Irish do and taste some beer either at the popular Guinness Storehouse or at the Temple Bar.
Killarney
Kilkenny offers a hearty amount of historical attractions for travelers to explore. This is largely thanks to the town’s prior distinction of being the medieval capital of Ireland, which today lives on in the Medieval Mile, Kilkenny’s top attraction. Within the Medieval Mile you’ll find several interesting sights, such as Kilkenny Castle, St. Canice’s Cathedral and the Medieval Mile Museum.

One Friday afternoon, some of my classmates planned to take a hike in a jungle(丛林), including my friends Jake and Liam. They asked me if I would like to go with them. I love outdoor activities, so I immediately said yes.
It was sunny the following morning. I was in a very good mood. I was so excited about hiking since it was the first time that I had hiked with them. I ate a light breakfast. After that, I hurriedly ran out of my house to meet them in the school playground.
The jungle where we were going was far from our school. It took about three hours to go there by bus, but it wasn’t a boring journey as we were all eager to hike. After we got off the bus, we found a local guide to ensure our safety. The guide, whose name is Thomas, said that he had hiked there lots of times and that he was familiar with the route. When we arrived, Thomas told us never to leave the group. He warned us that we would easily get lost in the jungle if we walked alone. Then we began to hike.
There were various plants which we had never seen before. All of us were amazed at the beauty of the scenery and the sounds of the creatures. Sadly, after hiking for about an hour, I found that my watch on my wrist was gone. I realized that my watch had fallen off. It was a gift from my grandma, and I loved it very much. Without thinking, I turned back and tried to find my watch. Since I was the last one walking in the group, nobody noticed it when I walked away.
I wasn’t worried about getting lost because I thought I could find my watch easily. However, when I finally found my watch and tried to catch up with my friends, they had gone far. I immediately realized that I was alone and lost.
