2. Shellfish
Visit Ireland outside of summer and your chances of seeing the sun may be
slim. On the plus side, you'll be able to feast on the west coast’s plump native
oysters (Ostrea edulis), which come into season in September, and pay a visit to
the Galway Oyster Festival (28-30 September).

3. Irish Stew
One-pot cooking doesn’t get much simpler than Irish stew, traditionally made
with mutton, onions and potatoes (the addition of carrots can be a divisive
issue). To avoid the stew being watery (a childhood horror for many of us),
some recipes recommend adding pearl barley, a spoonful of roux or sliced
potatoes, while others reduce the liquid by leaving the stew to simmer.
10. Barmbrack
Enthusiasts make this fruity tea loaf all year round,
serving it smothered in butter with a cup of tea in the afternoon.
It’s at Halloween, however, that you’d find
a charm in your slice foretelling the future:
9. Celebrations, Festivals and Cultural Events
The most famous holiday of Ireland is St. Patrick's Day. It is celebrated every year on
March 17 not only in Ireland but all over the world. St. Patrick is the heavenly patron of the
country. Officially the day began to be celebrated only from the 18th century. However, the
Irish worshiped this saint and held feasts in his honor in the 8-9th century.
The tradition of breeding large fires in the hills, planting a bush of rowan in the garden
near the house and decorating it in the manner of the New Year tree has survived to this day.
Another amazing neo-pagan festival is celebrated on the day of the autumn equinox. Mabon is
associated with harvesting. Over time, the holiday became a symbol of everything, which no
longer exists.
Ireland is home to one of the most popular holidays in the world - Halloween. The
original Night of Horror was brought from the Irish and Scottish Celts, who believed that the
spirits could come down from heaven to see the living one day. There are lots of traditions
associated with Halloween. In addition to St. Patrick's Day, there are many other fascinating
festivals in Ireland; many of them devoted to art.
10. Shopping in Ireland
Ireland offers its guests wide opportunities for shopping. You can buy items by
traditional European brands, and local authentic things. Ireland is famous for high-
quality woolen things. You can find hand-tied sweaters and ponchos there. In Ireland,
there is Blarney wool factory, where you can buy unique cashmere things at affordable
prices. The Aran Islands became popular due to sweaters with an unusual knitting.
Another incredibly colorful Irish product is whiskey. Local unique goods include
crystal, glass, clay, and ceramics. Ireland is famous throughout the country for its
glassware of world famous brands. These items are unique in their simplicity and
inimitable elegance. The green color is traditional for most of the symbolic souvenirs
that tourists take away from the country.
11. Railway, Bus, Water and Other Transport
Transport infrastructure in Ireland is developed at a high level.
Buses are the most popular type of public transportation. As a rule,
comfortable green colored double-decker buses run around the city.
Should be noted that the bus routes are very well organized and the
buses act as the main means of transportation in those cities where there
are no railway networks.
The air transportation in Ireland is also at a high level. There are 10
international airports operating here which also accept charter flights.
There are as well about thirty small airfields. Therefore, if there is a need
to quickly move around the country, air transportation will be the best
solution. Water transportation is also developed. There are ferries and
barges not only along the coastal line.
Some flights connect Ireland with England and France, as well as
some islands. All year round, excursion liners, ships and boats cruise the
whole coastline. You can rent a boat for yourself if you so desire.
Conclusion
Cross Culture Understanding is a way to understand the similarities and
differences of cultures in various countries so that there are no misunderstandings.
Cross-Cultural Understanding plays an important role in communicating with people
from different countries. Language and culture cannot be separated. If we already
understand the norms and cultures of others, it will make it easier for us to adapt and
establish good relationships with each other. Good relationships will increase the
confidence of others in ourselves. Cross Culture Understanding for Ireland really needs
to be studied so that we know the history, government, national economy, early political
history, ethnic, groups, language, religion, habits, mentality, the way of living,
recreation, sports, foods, celebrations, festivals, cultural events, shopping, railway, bus,
water, and other transports of Ireland. If we had known about Ireland we will feel
interest because of many the unique of Ireland.
