Shop Street

. [ [http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/h2g2/pda/A320275 H2G2 ] ]

It is a characterful pedestrianised street, containing central Galway's best preserved ancient building, Lynch's Castle. As the main shopping street in Galway City, it epitomises the bohemian culture through its old brick buildings, bright storefronts, numerous pubs and array of street performers.
