Best Shopping Malls, Outlet and Places in Loughrea Area

"The easiest of these markets to access, as it sits right in the heart of the city, is the centuries-old Galway Market, trading in the same location since the days that the city mayor was forced to hang his own son for murder in a nearby laneway. While it still does the staples, these days the focus is much more imaginative: a huge variety of food stalls serving anything from sushi to curry, with lots of local arts and crafts, and plenty of live music to enjoy too. It’s all set alongside the church, in imaginatively named ‘Church Lane’."
