LIMERICK
An ancient city set on the banks of the majestic River Shannon, Limerick is original,
lively, and resolutely singular. From its beautiful Georgian architecture and its
splendid museums to its rugby-passionate inhabitants, you will be enticed by its
unique charm.

Carved by nature, the Shannon region offers spectacular scenery - the
impressive cliffs of Moher, the Burren, the seascapes of the Atlantic,
miles of golden beaches, and the plains of the Golden Valley, as well
as offering a riverfront city experience in Limerick, which is one of the
oldest cities in Ireland.

The third largest city in the country, Limerick is dynamic and
attractive: an ideal place to visit by day and by night.

In addition to their hospitality and generosity, the Irish people
have breathtaking land and landscapes.
The Eurolawyers will not be, for sure, your last trip to
Ireland!
