Galway’s Latin Quarter is the ultimate Authentic Irish experience. Going post covid I would recommend booking restaurants/pubs in advance. We booked places and pub hopped, getting starters at each place as food is required to have with drinks at the moment (due to Covid). Live singers on the streets, beautiful buildings and hustle and bustle make it the perfect place to sit outside with a pint of Guinness and people watch!☘️💚

Galway is a city by the sea, it has many things to see, including the famous "gansey", or "guernseys". The Latin Quateer is an area of the arts, where you can often find artists and craftsmen selling their creations by the side of the road. We bought some nice pieces, wshich were Celtic in design, quite inexpensively, including a ring, represeenting "love" or my daughter..

Lots of evidence of Galway’s medieval history within the Latin Quarter area which stretches from the city centre to the Spanish Arch, containing some of the city’s most historic landmarks. It starts at St. Nicholas’ Church it runs through the Saturday market and onto O’Brien’s Bridge. From there it follows the River Corrib down to the Spanish Arch where the Museum is located and then turns back up Middle Street onto Buttermilk Lane where it joins the starting point. People throng through here to enjoy the live entertainment as they wander through the cobbled streets and the hot spots on Quay Street, full of bars, restaurants and hotels. Galway was due to celebrate the European Capital of Culture 2020 which has been stymied by the pandemic. This is a highlight for many visitors to Galway and one of our favourite quarters in the city.
