Hello! This is my project of Unit 5, and it's called A Trip to Ireland.
00:00:00
In this project, I'm going to show you interesting things about Ireland, and which is my favourite country.
00:00:07
Are you ready? Let's go!
00:00:16
What's Ireland? Ireland is an island in the North Atlantic.
00:00:20
An island is a piece of land surrounded by water.
00:00:26
politically Ireland is divided between the Republic of Ireland and Northern
00:00:28
Ireland which is a different country it belongs to the United Kingdom Ireland is
00:00:34
divided into 32 counties for example County Dublin County Wicklow County
00:00:40
Galway okay 26 of these counties belong to the Republic of Ireland here in green
00:00:47
The rest belong to the United Kingdom, to Northern Ireland. Here they are in grey.
00:00:55
Ireland is considered as the Emerald Isle due to its green countryside. The whole country is green.
00:01:02
And it's considered the Emerald Island because of this beautiful stone, the Emerald.
00:01:15
Now let's focus on the Republic of Ireland. Remember that it's my favourite country.
00:01:22
The capital city of the Republic of Ireland is Dublin, and Dublin is the most populated city in Ireland.
00:01:33
The whole country, in the whole country there are 4773 millions of people, approximately.
00:01:42
Ireland has got two official languages, English and Irish.
00:01:52
However, not all people in Ireland can speak Irish because it's very difficult, it's a very difficult language.
00:01:58
For example, here we have the numbers in Irish.
00:02:05
A hain, a doi, a tree, a caher.
00:02:08
Here we have how to say exit in Irish and here caution in Irish.
00:02:12
As you can see, it's very difficult and very weird.
00:02:20
and here we have the Irish flag it's green white and orange now I'm going to
00:02:24
talk about the mountains Ireland is mostly flat but there are some mountain
00:02:33
ranges one of these mountain ranges are the Wicklow mountains these are the
00:02:39
Wicklow mountains this is the Great Sugarloaf a mountain in East County
00:02:45
Wicklow and this is a picture of me at the top of the Great Sugarloaf in Wicklow
00:02:50
this is the highest mountain of the island of Ireland it is 1038 meters high
00:02:57
it is the highest Ireland has got lots of huge and high cliffs these are the
00:03:12
cliffs for example these are the cliffs of Moher they are the most famous cliffs
00:03:27
in Ireland. They run for about 14 kilometers and they reach their maximum
00:03:33
height of 214 meters, 214 meters and these are two pictures of me
00:03:42
visiting the cliffs of Moher. But the highest cliffs in Ireland are the
00:03:50
leaf league cliffs and they are in Donegal these are the highest cliffs in
00:03:56
Ireland now I'm going to talk about the rivers the longest river in Ireland is
00:04:03
called the river Shannon and it's 360 kilometers long this is the river Shannon
00:04:14
and the most famous river is river leafy because it this river flows through the
00:04:21
center of Dublin. This is Dublin and it flows through the center of the city and
00:04:32
remember that Dublin is the capital of Ireland. It's 125 kilometers long.
00:04:37
National parks. I'm going to talk about six of the most famous national parks in
00:04:46
Ireland. The first one is Wicklow Mountain National Park. Remember that I
00:04:57
I show you a picture, a few slides before. This is the Borren National Park, Killarney
00:05:01
National Park, Glenvere, sorry for the pronunciation but I don't speak Irish, I can't. National
00:05:09
Park, Connemara National Park and Ballycroy National Park. Now I'm going to talk about
00:05:17
the fauna, the wildlife in Ireland. You can feed deer in Ireland, they are very friendly
00:05:25
And this is the viviparous lizard. It's the only land reptile native to Ireland. It's the only one that is native to Ireland. This is the Atlantic puffin. It is a migratory bird to Ireland. And it's very common at the coastal areas. The areas that are in the coast.
00:05:34
This is the barking shark and it's often seen at the west coast of Ireland.
00:05:55
This is the calopteryx virigo and this is a huge jellyfish that I found at the beach.
00:06:03
This is my foot, I promise, and this is a huge jellyfish that I saw. They are very scary.
00:06:13
Okay, here we have some Irish cities and towns. The most famous are Cork, Galway, Limerick, Waterford, Drogheda and Kilkenny.
00:06:21
But, what important city is missing? What do you think, guys? What's the city that you miss?
00:06:38
of course Dublin the capital let's see things about Dublin Dublin is the
00:06:47
capital city of Ireland the Greater Dublin area has a population of one
00:06:56
million two hundred and nineteen thousand people approximately Dublin is
00:07:02
also the biggest city in Ireland it is located in the east coast of the island
00:07:08
here. Here we have Dublin. Dublin was built by the Vikings, and it's built upon the River Liffey.
00:07:17
Remember that we saw this river? It's called River Liffey. Here you have some important attractions
00:07:26
that you can see in Dublin, or things that you can do. For example, you can visit Malahide Castle,
00:07:35
you can visit Phoenix Park, which is the biggest park in Europe. It has got plenty of beautiful
00:07:41
cycle paths. You can also see the Spire in the city center. You can visit a jail
00:07:49
which is called Kilmanham Gaol. You can see its beautiful streets and you can
00:07:56
visit the Molly Malone statue which is very famous in Dublin. Now I'm going to
00:08:02
talk about the bridges that you can see in Dublin. This is the Heypenny's Bridge
00:08:14
and it is officially the Lethe Bridge. It is a pedestrian bridge built in the 19th
00:08:19
century over River Liffey. Can you imagine the reason why this bridge has
00:08:25
got this name? In the past if you wanted to cross the bridge you had to pay a
00:08:31
half penny toll for 100 years. This is why this bridge has got this curious
00:08:39
name because if you wanted to cross it you had to pay. Now this is the James
00:08:45
Joyce Bridge and this is the Samuel Beckett Bridge. Both of them are designed by the
00:08:56
Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. This one over here, the Samuel Beckett Bridge,
00:09:03
has got the shape of an harp. A harp is the musical instrument, this musical
00:09:09
instrument, okay? And it is the national symbol for Ireland. You can see the harp
00:09:15
in the Guinness brand for beers, here you have the harp, and in this airline
00:09:21
Renner, here you have the harp. It is the national symbol for Ireland. Another
00:09:28
thing that you can do in Dublin is visiting Trinity College. Trinity College
00:09:37
is a university in Dublin and inside the university you can visit the library,
00:09:42
Trinity College Library. It's very beautiful and you can see the Brian
00:09:49
Boru's harp. It is dated to the 14th or 15th century and it is one of the oldest
00:09:55
surviving harps in the world. This one over here. And this is the end of
00:10:03
my presentation. Thank you very much for watching. I hope that you liked it.
00:10:12
