Meine persönlichen Höhepunkte in Irland

General post Office O'Connell Street The famous Easter rebellion of the Irishmen took place against the English occupying power here. This rebellion was bloodily suppressed by the brits but as of this time a real revolution was started against England. Paintings as well as a sculpture and a plaque have inside the post to be looked.
Kilmainham Gaol The leaders of the east rebellion were executed in this prison. A plaque was set up in the prison yard next to the Irish flag to the memory of it. District: Kilmainham bus of the Aston Quay 51 B, 78 A, 79
Glasnevin Cemetary / Botanic Gardens Cemetery where are the famous Irish personalities buried; the Dublin mayor O'Connell as well as the National hero Michael Collins lies here. The lovely botanic garden is also located district Glasnevin in the immediate neighbourhood.
St Patricks Cathedrale  Beautiful Cathedral to the honour from St. Patrick
Christ Church Cathedrale Beautiful Cathedral. The catacombs from this are very nice
Bank of  Ireland Beautiful Building in the City from Dublin
Guinness Brewery The probably most famous brewery of the world. The brewery area really has leased Arthur Guinness for 9000 years. The former visitor centre (hop gates) was closed by the strong visitor rush. For this the net curtain house was built. Although in my opinion the new visitor centre is, gigantic the hop gate, however, does not give so many to information about the Guinness as at that time. Location: St. Jame's Gate district: Libertys  Guinness Storehouse
Beamish Brewery The opponent of Guinness in Cork. This brewery can be visited on two days in the week. One receives a video lecture and is led directly by the brewery. This is much clearer than with Guinness in Dublin.
Murphy Brewery In Cork you will see many posters with the title "In Cork we are of drink always Murphys". The Murphys Brewery is also a competitor of Guinness and resident in Cork.
The oldest licensed Whiskey-Destillery of the world is in Northern Ireland. The Bushmills-Destillerie can be found in the gleichnahmigen place.
 St. Stephens Green Beautiful park in the middle of Dublin. Good staying point after a shopping spree. The park is also used for the short lunch very much. My tip: Buy a salad and scones at the Shopping centre (Dunnes Storres) and enjoy these in this park.
The Donkey Sanctuary

The last donkeys of Ireland are living in this Donkey Sanctuary. For me this was a highlight. In this donkey park several hundred donkeys can be seen. They were rescuted from farms and now they living at this sanctuary to the rest of her lifes. This Sanctuary is Knockardbane; Liscaroll at Mallow in the County Cork.

 Sathya Sai Sanctuary Trust for Nature Also a Donkey Sanctuary in Castelbaldwin in the County Sligo
