According to travel magazine Condé Nast Traveler, Cork is the most pleasant city on the Emerald Isle. According to them, it’s the ideal place to meet people, make friends and, above all, enjoy quality social relations.
The magazine rounded up the world’s “coolest” cities in 2018, and no fewer than three Irish cities made the top 10.
Cork would nevertheless be the N°1 city in their ranking, appreciated for the friendliness and warmth of its people. The magazine also emphasizes the city’s authentic, picturesque charm, making it THE coolest and most attractive city in Ireland!
As in most towns on the Emerald Isle, Cork is packed with cosy pubs and terraces where you can enjoy the great outdoors while sharing a table with friendly locals. adds the magazine
Among the other cities judged “nice”, Galway would be 2nd in the ranking for Ireland, and Dublin, would reach 7th position. A nod to the rival cities of Cork and Dublin, which constantly tease each other about their supposed superiority!
