Best Answer

Yes. Ireland is famous for its large amount of greenery. Being on the edge of the Atlantic means it gets large amount of rain. As a result there is a large amount of rivers and lakes and the plentiful amounts of rain and water makes it easy for growth of various trees and plants. Ireland is mainly a rural country. At one time Ireland had a huge amount of forests. As human development occurred and needs for farmland and urban development grew, most of that forestry has now gone. However, there is still a large amount of forests in Ireland.

Why does the west of Ireland have more lakes than the east.?

There are lots of lakes all around Ireland. The north midlands, including counties like Fermanagh, Westmeath and Cavan have a lot of lakes, so it is not just the west of Ireland that has lots of lakes. The west of Ireland is beside the Atlantic Ocean. A lot of weather systems travel across the Atlantic Ocean heading towards western Europe. The first major piece of land they hit is Ireland, so it gets a lot of rain as a whole, and because the west is the very first part to receive the rain, it gets the most rain in Ireland. There are lots of mountains and valleys in Ireland, many of those being along the western part of the country, so with all that rain and the geographical structure, many rivers and lakes form there and in other parts of Ireland.
