Cobh, Harbor town in County Cork, Ireland
The multicolored houses line the steep streets of Cobh, creating a gradient from the waterfront up to St Colman's Cathedral at the summit.
Cobh marked the final departure point for 123 passengers who boarded the RMS Titanic on April 11, 1912, before its Atlantic crossing.
The town preserves its maritime heritage through the Cobh Heritage Centre, documenting the stories of millions of Irish emigrants who departed from this port.
Visitors can explore the town through designated walking trails that connect major landmarks, including the Victorian promenade and the original White Star Line office.
From 1848 to 1950, Cobh served as the primary departure point for 2.5 million Irish citizens seeking new opportunities across the Atlantic Ocean.
