The Emerald Isle

Ireland is a very magical, enchanting and scenic place to see. Do you ever wonder why it’s called the Emerald Isle? Well if you were way up in the sky looking down on Ireland it’s like a precious jewel resting on a shiny blue silk cloth. If you take a closer look and examine the Emerald Isle you’ll see sheep grazing the fresh green pasture, that looks like little cotton balls from way up high.

Now taking a closer look you’ll see old magical castles where royal families once lived. The big castles are gray, greatly detailed, and some of them covered in green growth. Most of them are now ancient ruins, while others have been restored into luxurious hotels. The grass is so perfect it looks like green carpet or felt and the gardens are so luscious. Inside the peaceful gardens there might be little faeries dancing around.

Ireland is also known for Celtic crosses in the graveyards, Beautiful Wicklow Mountains National Park that is located on the East Coast of Ireland between Dublin and Kilkenny, the Stiffy tower in Dublin that is by the Liffey River, and the wonderful statue of Molly Malone. Also while you’re in Dublin don’t forget to visit the world’s most famous brewery the Guinness Storehouse.
