- Setting Description:
- Cork is located in the South of Ireland and is the second largest city in the country. It enjoys a keen rivalry with Dublin. Music, theater, dance, film, and poetry all play a part in city life. The city makes a great base from which to explore the south of Ireland, especially the mountains and beaches of Kerry.
