Buying an Irish Claddagh Ring in Galway, Ireland
If you’re in Ireland, think about buying a Claddagh ring in Galway and walking around the city, if only for a day.
With rugged green hills and dramatic coastlines, it won’t take long to see how the Emerald Isle got its nickname. This small island with a vast and striking countryside is a gem you need to experience.
A journey through Ireland will uncover layer after layer of intriguing Irish history and culture. Soak up Irish craic in a Dublin pub, discover the legacy of invaders turned settlers in Waterford’s Viking Triangle, get the gift of gab in Blarney, and return home wearing a Claddagh ring from Galway.
Slea Head Road beckons if you fancy a road trip on the island’s western shores. Or venture a little further afield with a drive along Northern Ireland’s Antrim Coast to the Giant’s Causeway and beyond.
Whether you’re tracing family roots or simply seeking the perfect cup of Irish coffee, Ireland will stir your soul in ways you could never imagine.
