Corrib River
The bridge from the Cathedral into town has a beautiful view of the river Corrib.

Town to Cathedral
The walk across the bridge back home is a great view of the St. Nicholas Cathedral. The man we know as St. Nick (yes I mean Santa) is known in Ireland as the patron saint of sailors.

The King's Head
Famous pub in Galway. It is called the King's Head because it was given to the man who executed the king of England and then fled to Ireland.

Shop Street
This is Shop Street the main street of the city center. It is completely pedestrian and home to many buskers.

Galway city wall
This wall and tower insider the Galway mall are not fake. They are in fact the only remains of the original wall that surrounded the city when it was founded.

Lynch Castle
The castle like town house of the Lynch family is now the Allied Irish Bank.

The Galway Market
This is a picture of the market that is held every Saturday in Galway in the shadow of the St. Nicholas church (not the Cathedral)
