Learn English in Galway, Ireland
Cultural capital of Ireland
The city of Galway, Sheltered from the Atlantic Ocean by the picturesque Galway Bay, is one of the most western cities in Europe but its location does not mean that it is isolated.
Traditionally and over the centuries, this port city has traded with countries far and wide. Today this considerable history continues by welcoming people from even more countries. It is a crossroads, a place where people meet, coming from different directions, a lively and bustling place with an amazing cultural diversity.
Known as the cultural capital of Ireland, Galway is a small but vibrant university city with a population of 72,000. It is renowned for its music, both traditional and modern, for its theatre and performing arts and, perhaps most of all, for its many festivals throughout the year.
Galway people are friendly and helpful; they are proud of their city and their region, and happy to show it to the world. The city is a maze of small, winding streets filled with shops, traditional pubs, street performers, weekend markets and some of Ireland's finest restaurants.
There is much more outside too as the city is a gateway to explore the striking scenery of the West coast of Ireland, from the magnificent Cliffs of Moher to the unspoilt karst Burren to the isolation of Aran Islands, unique for their language, Irish (Gaelic) is spoken here as a mother tongue, archaeology and heritage.
