Cork by private jet Estimated flight time from Paris : 1h30
Proudly nestled on an island in the middle of the River Lee, the city of Cork is truly built on water. Its city center rests on an island surrounded by two channels of the River Lee, spanned by numerous bridges that give Cork a distinct continental charm. The heart of the city is a blend of narrow 17th-century lanes and modern architectural masterpieces such as the Opera House.
A must-visit in Cork is its covered market, one of the oldest in Europe. Open since 1788, it focuses on local produce: farmhouse cheeses, cured meats, buttered eggs, sausages, fresh bread, and smoked salmon. You’ll also find a selection of imported delights, from olives to fine wines, adding an international touch to this culinary gem.
Perched on a hill overlooking the city to the north, the Shandon district offers one of the best panoramic views of Cork and its surroundings. The area is filled with galleries, antique shops, and cozy cafés tucked along charming old streets and squares. The tiny terraced houses and winding lanes exude a timeless allure, perfect for an afternoon stroll.
The Protestant Cathedral of St. Fin Barre’s is another unmissable landmark. Its sharp spires, grotesque gargoyles, and intricate stone carvings make the façade spectacular. Inside, the splendor continues with marble mosaics, a vividly painted ceiling, a massive pulpit, and the bishop’s throne — a true masterpiece of craftsmanship.
