How one kiss can make you eloquent.
Blarney castle is a popular tourist site in Ireland, attracting visitors from all over the world to kiss the famous Blarney Stone and tour the castle and its gardens. The Blarney Stone is a block of Carboniferous limestone built into the battlements of Blarney Castle. According to legend, kissing the stone endows the kisser with the gift of eloquence. The stone was set into a tower of the castle in 1446. (You can only kiss the stone in an acrobatic position.)
Photo: not the castle, but "Blarney House", built on the same site in 1874.

Top Province of Munster Hotel Reviews

The International Hotel Killarney

10/10 Excellent

"Very good experience, great staff and great location "

Commodore Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"This was one of my favorite stays for my entire trip through many countries. I LOVED the area right on the beach and among all the shops and dining areas. I attended the Titanic museum which was only $13 euros and was worth every penny. The staff were VERY friendly and the hotel was spotless and was also worth every penny. Thank you for everything! "
