ArmaghCounty Armagh

Two cathedrals on opposite hills (both called St Patrick's), the Armagh Observatory and Planetarium, the apple orchards and being Northern Ireland's ecclesiastical capital

St Patrick chose Armagh as the centre of Irish Christianity in the 5th century. Two cathedrals — Catholic and Church of Ireland — stand on rival hills. One of Ireland's oldest and most significant cities.

Walk between the two cathedrals — the contrast between the ancient hill church and the Gothic revival is remarkable. The Georgian Mall. The October Apple Fair.
