I've been to County Wicklow a few times on family holidays, and of course, now that I live in Dublin, it's only a 30 min drive by car.
Wicklow is known as "The Garden of Ireland" and is very popular with Dublin day-trippers.
The main tourist attractions of County Wicklow are : Glendalough, Bray seafront, Avoca village, Powerscourt gardens and the Wicklow mountains |
|  | ...and Arklow... Arklow is in South County Wicklow. It's mainly a town that I usually just pass through on the way to Wexford.
Arklow comes from the Irish "An Inbhear mor", which means "The big estaury" or "large inlet" , so by that piece of useless information, you'll know that it must be on the coast. And here's a picture of said harbour. Arklow is about 1 hour's drive south of Dublin. |

Buckz Mon Aug 22, 2005 17:30 UTC James Joyce didn't think much of Moore's poem about the meeting of the waters, hence his comment in Ulysses about Moore's statue, which is above a very different meeting of the waters!! | Pakistaniguy Thu Jan 8, 2004 12:53 UTC Never heard of this place before but it seems to be interesting. The picture of Train and Airplane are most interesting. Best Wishes, UD from Lahore, Pakistan. | Rhondaj Mon Nov 10, 2003 17:13 UTC My dishes came from Arklow. I hear that the pottery factory is closed down now... | Alain_Smeets Wed Jul 30, 2003 21:58 UTC How many cows did you buy at that auction? Hmmm beefsteak with fries sounds great.
