Cork, Port city in County Cork, Ireland
Cork extends across multiple islands and channels of the River Lee, with bridges connecting neighborhoods filled with Georgian architecture and medieval structures.
Founded as a monastic settlement in the 6th century, Cork expanded after Viking invasions in 915 and received its charter from Prince John in 1185.
The English Market, established in 1788, remains at the center of Cork's food traditions, offering local specialties across 55 different merchant stalls.
The city center connects to Cork Airport through regular bus services, while pedestrian streets facilitate movement between shopping areas and historical districts.
St Anne's Church in Shandon allows visitors to ring the bells themselves, despite its clock faces showing different times, earning the nickname 'Four-Faced Liar'.
