The much visited Quadrangle building in Galway City University .
Connacht
AN INTRODUCTION
The western most province of Connacht promises wild and rugged beauty , and a lot more . Galway City , with its bohemian charm and friendly atmosphere , is an essential destination when in this corner of the world . The Arts and culture are well supported here , with many of the country ’ s artisans and craft makers calling it home . With a backdrop of the Atlantic Ocean , and a bustling nightlife , this is one city you cannot afford to miss . Just off the coast of Co . Galway lie the Aran Islands , in Galway Bay . Accessible by ferry or plane , these islands are one of the few remaining bastions of Irish language and culture , although other
Gaeltachts certainly exist . The ancient fort of Dún Aonghasa ( Dún Aengus ) lies on Inishmór .
Killary Harbour , in Co . Mayo , is a natural fjord and one of the most spectacular of its type in the country . Bordering this is Connemara , in western Galway . Wild and remote , Connemara is home to some of the country ’ s Gaeltacht regions , as well as being the headquarters of the country ’ s Irish language TV station , TG4 . It also happens to be the setting for the film The Guard , starring Don Cheadle and Brendan Gleeson .
