I'm from cork and during the Covid lockdown you could only venture to places within the county. County Cork is huge and I'd imagine that if you're travelling from the tip of east cork to west cork it's probably a 3 hour drive! Well some of the beaches we have in Cork are insane. From Red Barn to inchydoney and Barley Cove, we are absolutely spoilt for choice. I absolutely love this place we call home!!
is that how people in ireland talk about their cities like its some kind of product? People are different. some people are in wheelchairs and some people are olympic athletes whats manageable then?
@standardtuning4guitars423 oh god, there is always one of you isn't there. Just like the drunken uncle at a wedding. You can't not invite him but know there's going to be a rukkas.
I will be traveling from Trinidad 🇹🇹 to Cork Ireland 🇮🇪 on May 7 2023 . I'm so excited. Can't wait to visit the castle ruins and have some Guinness, Beamish and Murphy from a local pub.
@@manymoms920 No its pronounced jail.I think its that most people only know the american english spelling now so thats why people are confused. Originally it probably was spelt that way in colonial america aswell,but there was a move to make american english more phonetic so you have color rather than colour ,labor rather than labour and many others.Jail has travelled back over the pond ,but the old spelling is still used as jim above said in official documents
@@gallowglass2630 I was taught both spellings and I'm not that old. I guess as you say people are not taught these variations now. I was curious as I'm not Irish and wondered if their was a different pronunciation. Thank you.
This effort on your part may just save my life AND the life of my retirement. I married Irish and into one of the best families I've ever known. However, I despise "Irish food". It's the grossest, nastiest, tasteless thing I've ever experienced. Horrifying. I also hate the weather so, the thought of living here after retiring? Not even half the year in Spain could save me from deep depression! However and oh, so incredibly grateful to you and your video, I see vast hope, an awakening and awareness I didn't have. Thank you and thank GOD for Cork! Cork is exactly where I need to buy a house and actually have family friends with GREAT FOOD! Still living in Málaga half the year but, Ireland and the scenic, gorgeous, cullinary wonder of Cork has truly, truly made a new hope and a new home for me. It won't be Florida but, it will be safety, security, excellent people and many things I recognize and value. Thank you! I feared Galway and oooow..Dublin! Now, I don't!!
@@sir2657 and that's what an Irish boomerang is !! The person who loves the romantic illusion of their country of birth , they love everything about their country , the people, the music , the old ways etc But they never come back ...All they do is chat rubbish
Lovely place! Been to Killarney,twice. Had a trip in Ring of Kerry so nice places there! Ireland is my second home. Watching this video from the Philippines. Hope to visit again Ireland one day!
Kurt Cobain said he had a spiritual-like connection to Cork when he visited on tour. Literally close to crying when walking around the streets. Turns out this is where his ancestors are from 🎸
Thanks for doing this video. It annoys Cork people that the majority of tours of Ireland leave out Cork city and county. Yet it has so much to offer as you say. Cobh and Kinsale are beautiful towns also with loads of history. Before heading for Kerry, check out some of Corks beaches. Another thing is to begin the wild Atlantic way in Kinsale, and get to the ring of Kerry on the coastal route. If you take the main road, stop in Baile Mhuirne. Still a Gaeltacht area, where Irish or Gaeilge is the first language of the area. If you can, an overnight here is worthwhile. A place with a strong tradition of music, singing and storytelling. The famous Iarla O Lionard comes from this area. ( Solo unaccompanied singer in the movie Brooklyn. )
Thankyou for letting me know of Corks beaches. Yes I looked at several tours, and Cork was not in Them. Or in it, but not enough; and Not to stay in. Or near. Not long enough. Yet they all had the titanic Wreck! I am not interested in a tragic disaster, or distillaries. I love beaches, waterfalls. Want to visit Ireland for the first time.

Yes, I would even go so far as to say, forget about Kerry, even though I have spent a significant part of my life there... Kerry has unfortunately become cheap tourism for the masses, and is very difficult to get around if you don't drive on the left ;) ... As a Corkonian, I advise heading East of Cork for more plentiful Beaches, without the shoals of Jelly Fish, that you will find washing in from the Atlantic in Kerry. A lot more history & culture in the East, due to it facing Europe. Castles, Vikings, Kings, Queens, religious history, cultural history, you name it.. Not to say that some of these things exist in Kerry, but they are definitely more plentiful and easier accessible in the East.
I was doing some research on my genealogy today and found out my 4xgreat grandparents John Hayes and Mary Murphy were from Rochestown, Cork. They were 1820 Settlers to South Africa. Cork looks beautiful, would love to visit some day.
Just found out my great great grandfather was born in Cork County, Ireland in 1863 before immigrating over to America. I had absolutely no clue I was 1/16 Irish before learning this. Out of all my ancestors, he is the one that came over America in the mid 1800's, all the rest of ancestors I have found so far came over in the early 1700's and early 1600's.
So so much more to do in Cork before you go and see the beauty of Kerry, families can visit Fota wildlife park, then onto the Titanic experience in Cobh. Nice video though.
my great great grandad is from cork, he moved to the highlands of scotland and my grandma moved down to Inverurie I believe, I wouldn't say I'm Irish or scottish (because I was born there and only lived there till I was 2 till I moved to endland) but I do wanna visit my roots one day and spend a few days in cork
I'm actually from Cork so I'm not sure why I was recommended this video but anyway good job. Cork is the real capital of Ireland. Ya know? 😏 There's an old saying in Ireland: "Wherever you go and whatever you do, may the luck of the Irish be there with you." 🍀 🇮🇪 ☘️
@@wheretonext-europe3349 Btw if you love the Ring of Kerry then you'd really love West Cork. It's beautiful open countryside near the coast. So it's got lots of tourist attractions like parks, playgrounds, beaches, churches, old castles and monuments. There's so much stuff available. You could make a separate video on that. Did you know? There are 346 castles in Cork County. You could easily spend your entire holiday exploring. And what's more fun than the great outdoors? 😀
@@wheretonext-europe3349 if you do that you definitely need to head east to youghal (yawl), it has tons of stuff, st, marys collegiate church which has been in use since the 9th century. the clock gate tower museum, the golf course (has great food overlooking the whole bay! the new cycleway thats been opened, great fishing both river and sea, the longest sandy beach in the country and it`s also one of the safest for swimming! the quay side in town was also where the original moby dick movie was filmed! a huge variety of resteraunts to suit all budgets, theres something to suit everyone and all within 40min of cork!
I don't know much about the market, but based on what little knowledge I have of economic supply and demand, this is the best time to venture into the market, but the only thing holding me back is the constant fluctuations in prices, which it's not supposed to be a problem, but i really need guidance because i want to use this avenue of everything being on discount to build a portfolio that pays dividends and takes care of me in retirement.
The cost of living is making people go into different businesses anyways, but my problem is that the rate at which money gets finished on little purchases is so surprising...
These are the conditions in which life-changing money is made by those who remain calm, patient, and take controlled risks. Volatility goes both ways. The bigger the red candles, the bigger the green ones.
I know Cork is where my grandmother's family came from. We have the US history to where they left. We want to go to see if we can pick up where our records dead end on the US side. Supposedly my family had a castle there that is currently a brewery and steak house. I have wanted to actually visit Ireland and experience it. So far I have been able to pass through Shannon on business. I don't count that but the people were great to me but seemed agitated by the other people on my same flight.
Me encanta Irlanda, ya he visto Dublin, pero de haberlo sabido, hubiera visitado esta ciudad que pasa desapercibida para los turistas que no nos informamos un poco antes de visitar un país y solo nos dedicamos a visitar las zonas más populares entre los turistas. En mi próximo viaje a Irlanda no faltará la visita a Cork.
I'm from Cork and this video was good! If I had one critique it would be that when you were saying go to a local pub, the video examples you used were not strictly 'Local". One is of my old workplace which was a city centre tourist Pub Lol. oh and with the jail. It's pronounced 'gwayle'. Everything else was great good job!
Hi, I'm planning to visit Cork with my mom next month. Always wanted to show her how beautiful this country is. Could you recommend me any pubs where have an authentic local vibe? :)
crookhaven is where i’m from and i think it deserves way more attention than it gets, most beautiful peninsula in ireland in my opinion but maybe in biased
Flew in from Hawai’i landed in Dublin it was fun but when I got to cork man the vibes were so chill Found some herb Agreed my grandmothers family hail from Kerry last name was is Murphy she’s a south boston native turned 100 this year but I guess are family bar was in Galways called “Murphys” across from kings pub No idea if the stout and bar are related cuz my cousins were not in town when I visited! Cork had amazing food Some Texes bbq spot White rabbit was a delight if I recall The city was buzzin and raining and snowing at the time loved it all
For people living there, would you say cork is a great place to stay? I am planning for masters at MTU, would appreciate some insight of people living there.
Hi there! It depends on who you ask but Cork is a very international city, it's considered a very safe place to live, and they are known for great and fast internet. Hope this helps!
These vidz are OK if you have zero sense of adventure and little imagination, but this is just another example of sticking to the same old "U.S Does Ireland Trail" and coming away from a county having experienced very little of what makes it special. I'm from Cork. Cork is Ireland's largest county and offers beautiful coastal routes along the Wild Atlantic Way, incredibly lush green countryside in the interior that is considered some of the most fertile land in Europe, mountains, forestry and forest trails, walking and cycling trails across the county, and so much more. The majority of Cork people who view this vid will almost certainly scratch their heads at the lack of a mention of anything regarding West Cork which is famous throughout Ireland and where many Irish people will travel to while in Cork. Visit Baltimore, Glengarriff, The Healy Pass and the Caha Pass in West Cork if you do nothing else as they're all to be found within half an hour's drive of each other on the Beara Peninsula. Check out Schull, Allihies, Mizen Head, Clonakilty also if you have a bit more time to do so. I've been fortunate to live in and travel through many countries across the globe and learned that the best thing you can do is ditch the guide book - Lonely Planet books are pretty crap in reality as it's one writer's interpretation of a place you're reading about and generally not representative of an authentic experience. Irish people in general are friendly and inquisitive and will happily suggest places you might enjoy so speak to the locals - go into a pub for a pint of Murphys, or Beamish. Just bare in mind that the overwhelming majority of Irish people have little interest in spending time in Dublin, because quite simply it's a shithole - an historic shithole, but a total shithole nonetheless...spend a maximum of 2 days there and get out and explore the island for yourself. Talk to the Irish about the country's history or the weather when you're in a pub and you'll have no shortage of people wanting to converse with you about the English or the rain. Enjoy your travels in Ireland.
My grandfather before he passed was a genealogy hobbyist, as well as photography. He also was a Tuskegee airman. We are all black people, and no matter who we have children with, we're all extremely light skin and look like white people but with black features (hair, lips nose). My grandfather traced us back to the 1780s, he was "born free". Somewhere about 40 years later, a man "from the county cork Ireland" entered the picture. We were wealthy blacks for centuries (I'm broke tho), do we have pictures of our great ×4/5 grandparents dating back to the 1840s, they're black you can tell, but light skin. All throughout the 1800s we have tons of photos, they married dark people, had light kids. All from this single ancestor from Co. Cork. My father is as little darker than Ice Cube, I sunburn like no other, freckles, and green eyes. I have his crazy nappy hair though, my husband cuts dreadlocks out of my hair because they form so quickly. It's so bizarre! #UltraCaucasion
this was a great video and I'm really glad you enjoyed my city. the pronunciation was killing Mr though 😂 don't worry Irish is a difficult language. Gaol is pronounced gay-el. just said fast. nano nagle is pronounced nay-gel with a hard g like garden. finally Killarney is pronounced kill-ar-knee again said fast. remember you're always welcome in cork 😉 oh yeah and Guinness is shite 😂 it's kept for the tourists. Drink Murphy's instead 😊
Just a suggestion, rent a car and drive some length of the coast (assuming sunny weather). The coast is really satisfying to drive since one of the best things about Ireland is the terrain, plus there's loads of little coastal villages with with churches, old manor houses etc in them (and usually nice restaurants). On the way if you google ahead of time there's tons of broken down castles, old structures (some being neolithic, some Google will be required). Definitely worth a day of travelling, try to limit yourself to a specific county (Irish roads are not straight, are very curved) and Google ahead of time if the area has data/phone reception (very rural parts of Ireland will not, once you have a save of the area on Google maps you should be fine, if in doubt ask a local if you're in a village).
You left out the most important part of nano nagle. Good day deli restaurant is situated in the gardens which would have been ideal to mention in your video. So glad you loved my home town cork
The only thing about renting a car at the minute is the scumbag car rentals are charging up too 2 thousand euro for a week so shop around its never been this high and is terrible to charge tourists so much as they pay enough to get here.enjoy your stay anyway✌️❤️
You don't need the sun, but a clear day with no mist. Being honest, most of our sunshine is of the liquid variety. If you want to get away from the sun, come to Ireland.

The indigenous people of England will be a minority in a few years. I suppose you want to Irish to be a minority in their own country too. It's our only home. We are already a global minority. Ireland for the Irish.
You think Cork is overlooked Try Limerick Limerick is haunted by its past and now very few tourist come here cause for some reason everyone tells tourist to avoid the "stab city" And I'm sick of hearing it Limerick is a medieval city with extremely old buildings and cathedrals with tons of history to them as well as the castle It's also not hard to find brilliant pubs to go and get some of the best drink in Ireland and maybe meet some locals to have a laugh with There is so many things in Limerick that are completely overlooked by tourists coming to Ireland and it upsets me that it all goes to waste cause we have a bad past
See you around. I've 2 sons there and another hopefully going in September. He's doing dreaded leaving certificate at the moment. What course are you doing? UCC campus is really pretty. You'll enjoy walking around it. Accommodation is difficult to get however. You should act on that now. Prices have soared this year all over Ireland. Student accommodation is your best bet for first year.
Cork City What? Oh you mean Gaol, it's pronounced Jail. The biggest things you missed in Cork City are the Shaky (Daly's) Bridge [try jumping in the middle], Cork Harbour (amongst the largest natural harbours in the world), then there is Spike Island, Fota, Clonakity the home of Black Pudding, Cobh Cathedral, Titanic Exhibit, Youghal, Skibbereen, etc. Why mention Kerry? Cork is the largest County in Ireland, there is so much to see there. I myself went to St John's Boy's School in Ballincollig!
Anyone know any affordable places to stay in cork city? Got flights booked this weekend, but can't find anywhere that's affordable at all. Thanks in advance
Try Sheila's Hostel, or one of the 4 or 5 Self - Catering places in the same row of big old houses on Wellington Rd. (Specifically Wellington Terrace)... I don't know how 'spendy' you want to go, none of these places are gonna look like they belong in an Agatha Christie (Hercule Poirot) movie, but the place my (late) wife and myself stayed in a few years back (I don't have the _specific_ address any more I'm afraid, sorry!) was cheap, cheerful... and *clean.* Being a front facing apartment, it had _great_ views out over the city. Wellington Terrace is half - way between the train station and the main drag, and 10 minutes _tops_ from both. *'Health Warnings':* These accomodations are probably not for you if you have impaired mobility. I'd say _definitely_ not, if you're in a wheelchair! The buildings are old. Not shabby or anything, but, yeah, *old!* The Terrace is on a steep~ish hillside (tbh, the city, generally, is famous/infamous for its many hills) and the last couple of yards up to the door require negotiating a short series of stairs. All that said though, I'm an above - the - knee amputee, (and _definitely_ not the kind that does pentathlons and alla _that_ crap!) but I don't remember it being an especial hassle on our visit. Can't have hurt that the wife was there to help me though!! Finally, this comment is neither an ad, nor a 'plug' for _anyplace._ Simply answering the question that was put, nothing more; and it's getting on for 10 years since I was down there, and things change all the time. Think of my comments as a jumping off point, _not_ the last word. ps This neighbourhood generally has a fair few accomodations options from the fairly posh to the more budget orientated even if in general this means more 'oriented towards _their_ budget', (think 'The Royal Victoria Windsor Hotel' in National Lampoon's European Vacation) - _NOT_ yours, lol!
@@richiehoyt8487 Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, all of the ones you mentioned have been booked up. The ones that are available cost £175 and above which is not ideal, considering I paid £21 for a return ticket. One of my patients told me to go to the pubs and bars and ask if people are willing to take me in for the night. I was in Slovakia last weekend, without knowing anyone.. made a friend there and he was kind enough to show me around everywhere and his mother cooked me some very delicious Slovakian food. So if I don't find anything, I'm just going to wing it and hopefully meet kind Irish folks who are willing to give me a space to sleep for the night.
i think youve already got one but i stayed in Brú hostel and bar and its great. like 20euro a night for mixed dorms. or if youre going with a group they ususaly just give a room to a ya. be sure to try the Beamish
@@breaddboy Hey mate, the Bro bar was completely booked as well. All the hostels have been booked. I don't have a place to stay at the moment. Going to just ask people if they're willing to give me a space to sleep for the night.
I was born in Cork, but didn't get to appreciate it as I was too Young, but rediscovering now, proud to come from such a great and beautiful City
My great grandmother came from Cork City during Easter 1916, Greetings to my Mc Carthy Clan in Cork.
When I was in Ireland it only rained twice. Mon-Thursday and Fri-Sunday
Ha ha yeah it's raining now.
Thank you for highlighting all Cork has to offer. We are often overlooked for Dublin or Killarney.
Thank you Laura! We appreciate the feedback.
There is one more thing Cork has to offer-no accomodation.

Just found out my great great grandfather was born in Cork County, Ireland in 1863 before immigrating over to America. I had absolutely no clue I was 1/16 Irish before learning this. Out of all my ancestors, he is the one that came over America in the mid 1800's, all the rest of ancestors I have found so far came over in the early 1700's and early 1600's.
maybe he knew my grandfather he moved to Scotland
Pretty much every American is 1/16th Irish
My grandfather’s family came to the US around the same time as yours and also from Cork County! I haven’t been yet, but plan to in the next few years.
I guess that visiting Jameson distillery in Midleton should be on "to visit" list
I live here, this place is insane
Nice one. 👍
So so much more to do in Cork before you go and see the beauty of Kerry, families can visit Fota wildlife park, then onto the Titanic experience in Cobh.
Nice video though.
Very nice.
Thank you Caroline!
Cork is a nice city it's bigger than kilkenny city cause kilkenny is a small city
my great great grandad is from cork, he moved to the highlands of scotland and my grandma moved down to Inverurie I believe, I wouldn't say I'm Irish or scottish (because I was born there and only lived there till I was 2 till I moved to endland) but I do wanna visit my roots one day and spend a few days in cork
Wow🎉😊
I'm actually from Cork so I'm not sure why I was recommended this video but anyway good job. Cork is the real capital of Ireland. Ya know? 😏
There's an old saying in Ireland: "Wherever you go and whatever you do, may the luck of the Irish be there with you." 🍀 🇮🇪 ☘️
We are glad to be able to show a piece of your City!
@@wheretonext-europe3349 Btw if you love the Ring of Kerry then you'd really love West Cork. It's beautiful open countryside near the coast. So it's got lots of tourist attractions like parks, playgrounds, beaches, churches, old castles and monuments. There's so much stuff available. You could make a separate video on that. Did you know? There are 346 castles in Cork County. You could easily spend your entire holiday exploring. And what's more fun than the great outdoors? 😀
@@StevieObieYT Thank you Stevie! We will have to check that area out and perhaps showcase a video with everything that Cork County has to offer!
@@wheretonext-europe3349 if you do that you definitely need to head east to youghal (yawl), it has tons of stuff, st, marys collegiate church which has been in use since the 9th century. the clock gate tower museum, the golf course (has great food overlooking the whole bay! the new cycleway thats been opened, great fishing both river and sea, the longest sandy beach in the country and it`s also one of the safest for swimming! the quay side in town was also where the original moby dick movie was filmed! a huge variety of resteraunts to suit all budgets, theres something to suit everyone and all within 40min of cork!
@@jessgunn6639 Thank you for the info! We will look into all of this.
I don't know much about the market, but based on what little knowledge I have of economic supply and demand, this is the best time to venture into the market, but the only thing holding me back is the constant fluctuations in prices, which it's not supposed to be a problem, but i really need guidance because i want to use this avenue of everything being on discount to build a portfolio that pays dividends and takes care of me in retirement.
The cost of living is making people go into different businesses anyways, but my problem is that the rate at which money gets finished on little purchases is so surprising...
To attain financial independence, you need the experience of a financial consultant to achieve your goal.
These are the conditions in which life-changing money is made by those who remain calm, patient, and take controlled risks. Volatility goes both ways. The bigger the red candles, the bigger the green ones.
I feel sad that even though I am investing, I don't have the brain power to dig through how each company is doing
@AshleyBrown-fx9noHow can I connect with a reliable financial adviser?
I know Cork is where my grandmother's family came from.
We have the US history to where they left. We want to go to see if we can pick up where our records dead end on the US side.
Supposedly my family had a castle there that is currently a brewery and steak house.
I have wanted to actually visit Ireland and experience it. So far I have been able to pass through Shannon on business. I don't count that but the people were great to me but seemed agitated by the other people on my same flight.
Nice video! I think ‘Gaol’ is pronounced the same as Jail FYI.
I worked in the English market back in 89
Me encanta Irlanda, ya he visto Dublin, pero de haberlo sabido, hubiera visitado esta ciudad que pasa desapercibida para los turistas que no nos informamos un poco antes de visitar un país y solo nos dedicamos a visitar las zonas más populares entre los turistas. En mi próximo viaje a Irlanda no faltará la visita a Cork.
Gillian Murphy’s home town is beautiful
My great grandfather came from there.
here bc of binding 13
I'm from Cork and this video was good! If I had one critique it would be that when you were saying go to a local pub, the video examples you used were not strictly 'Local". One is of my old workplace which was a city centre tourist Pub Lol. oh and with the jail. It's pronounced 'gwayle'. Everything else was great good job!
Thank you for the feedback Luke!
Hi, I'm planning to visit Cork with my mom next month. Always wanted to show her how beautiful this country is. Could you recommend me any pubs where have an authentic local vibe? :)
The goal was always to get out of the gaol 😄
If you're in Cork you should have a Murphys not a Guinness. Why not show West Cork rather than the ring of Kerry. It's beautiful down here as well.
And Beamish.
crookhaven is where i’m from and i think it deserves way more attention than it gets, most beautiful peninsula in ireland in my opinion but maybe in biased
Flew in from Hawai’i landed in Dublin it was fun but when I got to cork man the vibes were so chill
Found some herb
Agreed my grandmothers family hail from Kerry last name was is Murphy she’s a south boston native turned 100 this year but
I guess are family bar was in Galways called “Murphys” across from kings pub
No idea if the stout and bar are related cuz my cousins were not in town when I visited!
Cork had amazing food
Some Texes bbq spot
White rabbit was a delight if I recall
The city was buzzin and raining and snowing at the time loved it all
I am travelling to cork Ireland in July 2024
For people living there, would you say cork is a great place to stay? I am planning for masters at MTU, would appreciate some insight of people living there.
Hi there! It depends on who you ask but Cork is a very international city, it's considered a very safe place to live, and they are known for great and fast internet. Hope this helps!
I live in Ireland😀🐌
As long as you are in Cork, you should drink local try a Murphy’s. It is a better pint than Guinness
My ancestry ,anthony obrion and patrick .considering,either move to cork.any bakers jobs there,.nice clip,thumbs.up.👍
These vidz are OK if you have zero sense of adventure and little imagination, but this is just another example of sticking to the same old "U.S Does Ireland Trail" and coming away from a county having experienced very little of what makes it special. I'm from Cork. Cork is Ireland's largest county and offers beautiful coastal routes along the Wild Atlantic Way, incredibly lush green countryside in the interior that is considered some of the most fertile land in Europe, mountains, forestry and forest trails, walking and cycling trails across the county, and so much more. The majority of Cork people who view this vid will almost certainly scratch their heads at the lack of a mention of anything regarding West Cork which is famous throughout Ireland and where many Irish people will travel to while in Cork. Visit Baltimore, Glengarriff, The Healy Pass and the Caha Pass in West Cork if you do nothing else as they're all to be found within half an hour's drive of each other on the Beara Peninsula. Check out Schull, Allihies, Mizen Head, Clonakilty also if you have a bit more time to do so. I've been fortunate to live in and travel through many countries across the globe and learned that the best thing you can do is ditch the guide book - Lonely Planet books are pretty crap in reality as it's one writer's interpretation of a place you're reading about and generally not representative of an authentic experience. Irish people in general are friendly and inquisitive and will happily suggest places you might enjoy so speak to the locals - go into a pub for a pint of Murphys, or Beamish. Just bare in mind that the overwhelming majority of Irish people have little interest in spending time in Dublin, because quite simply it's a shithole - an historic shithole, but a total shithole nonetheless...spend a maximum of 2 days there and get out and explore the island for yourself. Talk to the Irish about the country's history or the weather when you're in a pub and you'll have no shortage of people wanting to converse with you about the English or the rain. Enjoy your travels in Ireland.
I always heard that you should order a Beamish, not a Guinness, when you’re in Cork.
Cork is the most village looking city ever.
My grandfather before he passed was a genealogy hobbyist, as well as photography. He also was a Tuskegee airman. We are all black people, and no matter who we have children with, we're all extremely light skin and look like white people but with black features (hair, lips nose). My grandfather traced us back to the 1780s, he was "born free". Somewhere about 40 years later, a man "from the county cork Ireland" entered the picture. We were wealthy blacks for centuries (I'm broke tho), do we have pictures of our great ×4/5 grandparents dating back to the 1840s, they're black you can tell, but light skin. All throughout the 1800s we have tons of photos, they married dark people, had light kids. All from this single ancestor from Co. Cork. My father is as little darker than Ice Cube, I sunburn like no other, freckles, and green eyes. I have his crazy nappy hair though, my husband cuts dreadlocks out of my hair because they form so quickly. It's so bizarre! #UltraCaucasion
I have a great-great G-Mother born in County Cork.
this was a great video and I'm really glad you enjoyed my city. the pronunciation was killing Mr though 😂 don't worry Irish is a difficult language.
Gaol is pronounced gay-el. just said fast.
nano nagle is pronounced nay-gel with a hard g like garden.
finally Killarney is pronounced kill-ar-knee again said fast.
remember you're always welcome in cork 😉
oh yeah and Guinness is shite 😂 it's kept for the tourists. Drink Murphy's instead 😊
Always heard Cork is Murphys country 😂don't diss my Guinness!!
💚🇮🇪☘❤
Just a suggestion, rent a car and drive some length of the coast (assuming sunny weather).
The coast is really satisfying to drive since one of the best things about Ireland is the terrain, plus there's loads of little coastal villages with with churches, old manor houses etc in them (and usually nice restaurants). On the way if you google ahead of time there's tons of broken down castles, old structures (some being neolithic, some Google will be required).
Definitely worth a day of travelling, try to limit yourself to a specific county (Irish roads are not straight, are very curved) and Google ahead of time if the area has data/phone reception (very rural parts of Ireland will not, once you have a save of the area on Google maps you should be fine, if in doubt ask a local if you're in a village).
Thank you! We appreciate the suggestion. I've visited before and it's beautiful!
You left out the most important part of nano nagle. Good day deli restaurant is situated in the gardens which would have been ideal to mention in your video. So glad you loved my home town cork

Sayli in Dublin ❤️
The only thing about renting a car at the minute is the scumbag car rentals are charging up too 2 thousand euro for a week so shop around its never been this high and is terrible to charge tourists so much as they pay enough to get here.enjoy your stay anyway✌️❤️
You don't need the sun, but a clear day with no mist. Being honest, most of our sunshine is of the liquid variety. If you want to get away from the sun, come to Ireland.
Alguem assistindo??💤😎🎁💚
Ah to be sure, to be sure😂😂

I love that cork is much more diverse now, it was a bit boring before when it was just Irish people.
You’ve seen one you’ve seen them all, am I right?
Definitely!
The indigenous people of England will be a minority in a few years. I suppose you want to Irish to be a minority in their own country too.
It's our only home. We are already a global minority. Ireland for the Irish.
Yes...... If you can't have Afghanistan why not bring it here....and yes I'm from Cork and our culture is dying slowly.
I live in Derry 🇮🇪
how about living here?
Nowadays the Blarney Stone is more likely to give the gift if COVID to any lips that touch it ...
Where are the vibesss likeee???
You think Cork is overlooked
Try Limerick
Limerick is haunted by its past and now very few tourist come here cause for some reason everyone tells tourist to avoid the "stab city"
And I'm sick of hearing it
Limerick is a medieval city with extremely old buildings and cathedrals with tons of history to them as well as the castle
It's also not hard to find brilliant pubs to go and get some of the best drink in Ireland and maybe meet some locals to have a laugh with
There is so many things in Limerick that are completely overlooked by tourists coming to Ireland and it upsets me that it all goes to waste cause we have a bad past
I am heading to Cork from Trinidad 🇹🇹 on the 7th May 2023 and would definitely ask the people hosting us to take us to limerick
What all kinds of fish is and out of the market???????????
Was that the fish shop Miread works at in young offenders?
That Kardashian croaking at the end of every sentence is nauseating.
Ok Inwill try not to eat the plants i the garden! Usually I do you see, when visiting gardens, but not when I go there..
I'm guessing it was more advice for dog owners.
Why would you eat the plants when you visit a garden ??
Is there a lot of leprechauns there i take it > From a Bonnie Scot :D
💚🎁🎁🎁💚
Do the ring of beara it's much nicer than the ring of kerry and its not full of bus loads of yanks
You lost me at Killenarney, hey its called KILLARNEY!
I got accepted in University College Cork :))
Congratulations!
@@wheretonext-europe3349 thank you!
See you around. I've 2 sons there and another hopefully going in September. He's doing dreaded leaving certificate at the moment. What course are you doing? UCC campus is really pretty. You'll enjoy walking around it. Accommodation is difficult to get however. You should act on that now. Prices have soared this year all over Ireland. Student accommodation is your best bet for first year.
Welcome to Cork it's a safe enough place to vist or stay but don't be out at night behond 11:30. It gets messy with alot of young drunk people.
Annoying voice, but great coverage. Thanks!
Cork City What? Oh you mean Gaol, it's pronounced Jail. The biggest things you missed in Cork City are the Shaky (Daly's) Bridge [try jumping in the middle], Cork Harbour (amongst the largest natural harbours in the world), then there is Spike Island, Fota, Clonakity the home of Black Pudding, Cobh Cathedral, Titanic Exhibit, Youghal, Skibbereen, etc. Why mention Kerry? Cork is the largest County in Ireland, there is so much to see there. I myself went to St John's Boy's School in Ballincollig!
Anyone know any affordable places to stay in cork city? Got flights booked this weekend, but can't find anywhere that's affordable at all. Thanks in advance
Try Sheila's Hostel, or one of the 4 or 5 Self - Catering places in the same row of big old houses on Wellington Rd. (Specifically Wellington Terrace)... I don't know how 'spendy' you want to go, none of these places are gonna look like they belong in an Agatha Christie (Hercule Poirot) movie, but the place my (late) wife and myself stayed in a few years back (I don't have the _specific_ address any more I'm afraid, sorry!) was cheap, cheerful... and *clean.* Being a front facing apartment, it had _great_ views out over the city.
Wellington Terrace is half - way between the train station and the main drag, and 10 minutes _tops_ from both.
*'Health Warnings':* These accomodations are probably not for you if you have impaired mobility. I'd say _definitely_ not, if you're in a wheelchair! The buildings are old. Not shabby or anything, but, yeah, *old!* The Terrace is on a steep~ish hillside (tbh, the city, generally, is famous/infamous for its many hills) and the last couple of yards up to the door require negotiating a short series of stairs. All that said though, I'm an above - the - knee amputee, (and _definitely_ not the kind that does pentathlons and alla _that_ crap!) but I don't remember it being an especial hassle on our visit. Can't have hurt that the wife was there to help me though!!
Finally, this comment is neither an ad, nor a 'plug' for _anyplace._ Simply answering the question that was put, nothing more; and it's getting on for 10 years since I was down there, and things change all the time. Think of my comments as a jumping off point, _not_ the last word.
ps This neighbourhood generally has a fair few accomodations options from the fairly posh to the more budget orientated even if in general this means more 'oriented towards _their_ budget', (think 'The Royal Victoria Windsor Hotel' in National Lampoon's European Vacation) - _NOT_ yours, lol!
@@richiehoyt8487 Thanks for the reply! Unfortunately, all of the ones you mentioned have been booked up. The ones that are available cost £175 and above which is not ideal, considering I paid £21 for a return ticket. One of my patients told me to go to the pubs and bars and ask if people are willing to take me in for the night. I was in Slovakia last weekend, without knowing anyone.. made a friend there and he was kind enough to show me around everywhere and his mother cooked me some very delicious Slovakian food. So if I don't find anything, I'm just going to wing it and hopefully meet kind Irish folks who are willing to give me a space to sleep for the night.
i think youve already got one but i stayed in Brú hostel and bar and its great. like 20euro a night for mixed dorms. or if youre going with a group they ususaly just give a room to a ya. be sure to try the Beamish
@@breaddboy Hey mate, the Bro bar was completely booked as well. All the hostels have been booked. I don't have a place to stay at the moment. Going to just ask people if they're willing to give me a space to sleep for the night.
We have taken in thousands of Ukrainian refugees, so there are few places left to stay in
Gaol is pronounced same as jail.
It’s kellarny
