Believe it or not, there is more to Ireland than rolling grass hills, beautiful ocean, and leprechauns. Here are the five beautiful places to visit in the country – places that will truly take your breath away:
Arguably the most famous Irish landscape in the world, The Cliffs of Moher stand like rough castle walls, an incredible 120 meters over the blue waves of the Atlantic Ocean. The cliffs continue for miles, and on a clear day, they stretch as far as the eye can see. Stay away from the edge, however. A strong wind and questionable footing can lead you to disaster.
Back in the 6th century, the High King of Ireland sat on The Hill of Tara. Staggered around the hills you can find the stoneremains of ring forts. Also on the hill is the “Stone of Destiny,” which is said to scream when a king touched it after battling through several grueling challenges. The Smithsonian Museum listed the Hill of Tara as one of its 15 endangered cultural treasures, so be sure to see it before it leaves our world for good.
The first national park of Ireland, Killarney National Park has everything – including the only herd of native red deer in the country. In addition to the deer, there are several other types of rare animals to go along with the breathtaking forest and beautiful bogland. For those that don’t wish to walk, perhaps a horse and cart would help the trip.
A Christian monastery from the 6th century sits on the Skelligs – a pair of islands you can find off the Iveragh Peninsula. The
larger of the two islands has been declared a world heritage site, and those who choose to explore on boat will be rewarded with a view of sharks, dolphins, and whales.
On first glance, you might think the Kylemore Abbey to be a castle from a Disney movie, but in fact, it’s a Benedictinemonastery. The beautiful building features a library, a smoking room, 33 bedrooms – for those with large families – and impressive Victorian gardens. Though the building initially served as a boarding school, the Kylemore Abbey is now open to anyone who wishes to see its wonders.
