Top Things to do in Shandon
The 10 Best Things to do in Shandon, Province of Munster
Plan to cross many bridges when in Cork. Ireland's third-largest city began life as an island and now spans both banks of the River Lee, with watery channels running beneath some of its main thoroughfares. The best way to experience this hilly southern seaport is on foot, following the signposted walking tour past St. Finn Barre's Cathedral and the riverside quadrangle of University College up the hill to red and white Shandon Church. Along the way, you'll meet plenty of the city's talkative residents.

Fantastic shop with a fantastic owner. I went with my girlfriend and we spent about an hour and change talking with the owner, John, and looking through his diverse record collection of new and vintage vinyl. He was a great chat and he knew exactly how to help us find what we were looking for. John also gave some great music recommendations. The location is great and we had a pleasant experience. Any music lover visiting Cork should visit Bunker Vinyl and Studio!

My three Canadian cohorts and I found Sin è through the Heritage Pub map we were given. The venue had great live music, cold beer, and upstairs was a great extra seating area that just made you feel like you could relax and sit for hours. We chatted with a wonderful guy named Ronan... who happened to know a famous YouTuber that I love... which was really exciting for me... Overall a must see pub. Go. See. Hang. Drink.

Ireland has a long and rich history of making a butter. The museum would educate in that matter. Fantastic place in Cork city centre.

On the North Side of Cork the Firkin Crane Theatre occupies a plaza beside the Butter Museum. The theatre is circular in plan with a circular theatre space in the base and a more conventional theatre upstairs. The home of Dance in Cork it also doubles as a general theatre space. The surrounding location alone is worth a visit, and it sits beside St Annes Church with the famous Shandon Bells.
10. Urban Quest
Cork is known as a rebel city, a true capital of Ireland and gastronomical heaven. Ancient history and modern culture - it’s all about Cork, the most Irish city on the Emerald Island. The quest will take a couple of hours to explore. The best time to do the quest between 10 am and 5 pm when the majority of the museums are open to visitors. The length of the tour is about 2,5 km.
