Failte Ireland has launched Ireland’s Ancient East. See what awaits you:
Ireland’s Ancient East will offer visitors a compelling motivation to visit the East of our country.
Immerse yourself in a journey of discovery of 5,000 years
Get off the beaten track to see, hear, touch and feel the imprints of the millennia of settlers in this land. Ancient Man, Early Christians, Medieval Lords, Colonial Settlers and their descendants have all been seduced by these most lush, green and fertile lands.
Take your time to discover it all – the Stone Age art, the monasteries, the castles and fortresses. Drive leafy roads, explore meandering rivers or the mountains that once protected the original inhabitants.
Take in a festival, try local fresh produce or tasty local specialities, many of which trace their roots to ancient times.
The Bray District features on Ireland’s Ancient East with visits to the Killruddery House & Gardens & Powerscourt Estate (Which was Voted Top 10 Houses in the World by Lonely Planet & Voted No. 3 Garden in the World by National Geographic) highlighted.
