コリー周辺のアトラクション＆必見スポット - トップ10

バリーシャノンにとって、ローリー・ギャラガーは単なる世界的に有名なギタリストではありません。彼はアイルランド最古の街で「生まれ育った」誇りなのです。幼い頃にコークに移り住みましたが、バリーシャノンは心から彼を自分たちの息子としています。彼は1948年にロック・ホスピタルでここで生まれ、その深い繋がりは街の至る所で感じられます。 地元コミュニティの目には、ローリーはドネガルの謙虚で勤勉な精神を体現しています。彼は、象徴的な、使い古されたフェンダー・ストラトキャスターと特徴的なチェック柄のシャツを武器に、ブルースをアイルランドの魂にもたらした人物でした。住民にとって、彼は毎年世界中から何千人ものファンがローリー・ギャラガー国際トリビュート・フェスティバルに集まる理由であり、街を一時のロックンロールの中心地へと変貌させます。ローリーはここでは遠い伝説ではなく、ダイヤモンドにある像や街を飾るカラフルな壁画の中に生き続ける、触れることのできる存在なのです。

The shimmering waters of Lough Melvin attract anglers from around the world for its beauty and diverse fish. The lake is home to three unique species of trout, as well as salmon, and an endemic species of char, the Melvin charr. If you want to try your hand at fishing, you should purchase a license and consider renting a boat. The lake is 7.5 miles (12 km) long and 1.9 miles (3 km) wide and set amongst the beautiful green countryside along the border of County Leitrim and Country Fermanagh. If you are not into fishing, there's plenty of wonderful flora and fauna to enjoy too.

Built in the 17th century, Castle Caldwell was part of the Ulster Plantation, a province of Ireland colonised by British settles throughout King James I era. The castle had a number of inhabitants after that and fell into ruin towards the 1800s. Although access to the castle is now forbidden due to its dangerous state of repair, the surrounding park and forest can be explored freely. Keep your eyes peeled for the ruined chapel and overgrown graveyard.

Flowing from Slieve Glah to the Atlantic Ocean, the River Erme is the second longest in Ulster. The river forms part of the border, winding through the beautiful green rolling hills that Ireland is well known for. The river often becomes hard to distinguish as it passes through many Loughs below the Cavan and south Fermanagh drumlin hills. Many Christian and Pagan ancient ruins can be found along the river, some of which are perched on islands and only accessible by boat.
