After arriving in Ireland, the first stop was Blarney Castle.


Located in County Cork, the castle and its surrounding walls were built in 1446 by Dermot MacCarthy, King of Munster. 


The most famous element of this castle is the Blarney Stone. According to the legend, anyone who kisses the stone gets the “gift of the gab”, which means a greater skill in flattery and greater eloquence.  


The grounds of the castle also feature multiple stunning gardens, including water plant, carnivorous plant and poisonous plant gardens.
