The Lovely Ireland! - Apr 24, 2008 - 4:13:33 PM

From bizarre lunar landscapes and the mighty Atlantic to labyrinthine caves and crystal clear waterways, discover Ireland’s breathtaking beauty.

Did you know?

Ireland may be known as the land that boasts 40 shades of green, but not all natural attractions shimmer a shade of emerald. The Burren was formed around 340 million years ago at the bottom of a sea, and is an extraordinary region stretching from north  Clare to south  Galway. Arrestingly dramatic in appearance, the Burren’s unique landscape includes miles of limestone layers cut through by meandering streams, labyrinthine caves and unexpected lakes, a phenomenally rich cultural heritage, including over 70% of Ireland’s native flora. It is also home to more than 500 ring forts and over 80 Neolithic tombs
