Blarney Castle
Blarney Castle was built nearly six hundred years ago by one of Ireland's greatest and most infamous chieftains, Cormac MacCarthy. Over the last few hundred years, millions have flocked to Blarney, making it a world landmark and one of Ireland's greatest treasures. The world famous Blarney Stone or Stone of Eloquence is situated high up in the battlements of the castle. Follow one of the several long, stone spiral staircases up to the top and enjoy the spectacular views of the lush green Irish countryside. Kiss the Blarney Stone and you'll never again be lost for words. Historic figures such as Sir Walter Scott and a host of American presidents, world leaders, and international entertainers have all been eager to try out this myth for themselves.
