Limerick straddles the Shannon where it turns tidal, with medieval King's Island at its core and Georgian streets spreading south. The M7 gets you to Dublin in two hours, while the N18 runs to Shannon Airport (20 minutes) and Galway. Popular drives include the 110-kilometer run to Killarney and the 131-kilometer trip to Kilkenny. King John's Castle dominates the riverbank with its massive round towers that have watched over the Shannon for eight centuries. The city's famous for rugby at Thomond Park, and the regenerated Milk Market draws food lovers. Over 80 fast EV chargers serve the area.
