County Armagh's geography ranges from the hilly Ring of Gullion to the south to a rolling drumlin landscape as you move northward towards Lough Neagh. The county is home to Armagh City as well as the uncompleted planned town of Craigavon between Portadown and Lurgan. Various places across Armagh are connected to some of Ireland's legendary figures such as Brian Boru, Saint Patrick and Cu Chulainn.

In the Counties of Ireland Explained series, I will be making a video about all 32 counties on the island of Ireland, teaching you about their geography, history, economy, culture and more.
