Ireland’s Ancient East, See What Awaits You – Unravel Travel TV

Ireland’s Ancient East: For those who love to peel back the layers of time, Ireland's Ancient East is promoted as a wonderful opportunity to experience 5,000 years of European history in a compact area. Visitors can get off the beaten track to see, hear, touch and feel the imprints of the millennia of settlers in this land and discover Stone Age art, monasteries, castles and fortresses.
Ireland’s Ancient East is crafted along four distinct thematic pillars:

Ancient Ireland - There are many treasures in the south and east that are older than the pyramids, set in an ancient green landscape - passage tombs, dolmens and Stone Age observatories that are found throughout Ireland’s Ancient East. Visitors can wonder at the meanings behind the largest concentrations of carved Stone Age artwork and Celtic gold artefacts in Western Europe as well as hear from the locals themselves the stories that infuse this landscape of ancient warriors and Celtic druids. Key attractions: The prehistoric attractions of the Boyne Valley (Newgrange, Knowth, etc.); Brownshill Dolmen, Carlow.

Early Christian Ireland - Visitors to Ireland’s Ancient East will also be encouraged to step into the Golden Age of Saints and Scholars and visit the university and monastery sites where Ireland’s pioneering saints and monks wrote some of the world’s greatest illuminated manuscripts, before spreading their learning and spirituality throughout a Europe locked in the Dark Ages. Visitors can, for example, stand on the Hill of Slane where St Patrick built his bonfire, or travel west from the Boyne valley along the path of the Ancient Dividing Road, the Esker Riada, to find the site of Saint Ciaran's great monastery at Clonmacnoise. Key attractions: Clonmacnoise, Glendalough, Mellifont, Jerpoint Abbey, St.Canice’s Cathedral, Holycross Abbey.

Medieval Ireland - Visitors will also be encouraged to explore the pathways of Medieval Ireland and uncover a rich tapestry of tales from this turbulent time. From the Viking Triangle of Ireland's oldest city, Waterford, lush river valleys lead to the beautifully preserved Medieval City of Kilkenny and beyond. The fortresses and castles built to protect the land and its occupants are evident everywhere in the region. Key attractions: Ireland’s Medieval Mile, Kilkenny; Viking Triangle, Waterford, Hook Head Lighthouse; Trim Castle; Rock of Cashel.

Anglo-Ireland - In Anglo-Ireland visitors can discover the stories of a time of contrasts which shaped the lives of the now settled conquerors of Ireland and those they ruled over. Visitors will have a unique opportunity to experience what life was like in the 18th and 19th centuries. Lavish gardens, opulent houses and market towns are all there for them to explore including the great estates at Powerscourt, Mount Usher, Avondale, Castletown, Emo Court, Altamont and Lismore. The romantic ideals of these times inspired others to failed Rebellions, or to seek better fortune and escape from famine through emigration. At Dunbrody Famine Ship, in Wexford, for example, they can discover what leaving was really like for them. At Vinegar Hill and Wicklow Gaol visitors can see what became of those who stayed and fought for change here. Key attractions: Great Houses & Gardens, Dunbrody Famine Ship, Wicklow Gaol.

Travel Dublin, Ireland - The Dublin Castle

Take a tour of Dublin Castle in Ireland -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.

Dublin is a schizophrenic city, where you can find historic buildings right next to modern ones.

No building personifies this better than Dublin Castle, which can't make up its mind.

It has parts from the medieval ages, the 18th century, and the 20th century.

The castle has long been an important place for the government in Dublin and is designed accordingly.

The interior is famous for its decoration, including its Waterford crystal chandeliers.

An impressive landmark, the Dublin Castle is a jewel of the great city of Dublin.

Ireland's hidden gem! Must see!
