Ireland : Discover
Ireland is a multi-faceted destination that will delight the most demanding visitors. It must be said that the Emerald Isle offers an incredible nature, with sleeping lakes, breathtaking cliffs, moors and enchanting forests. But beyond the landscapes, the visitor will be immersed in the very rich Irish history. A history also marked by the separation in two of an island, three quarters of which became a republic in 1922. But also by famines, struggles against the yoke of the British Crown and by the eternal quest for freedom of a people so proud and brave. A people whose history is also marked by a dizzying immigration, like a survival reflex. Today, the island seems to live to the rhythm of family celebrations, pub outings, rich gastronomy, choice festivals or long walks on the superb hiking trails that criss-cross the country
