Lavender and Sun
The gold and silver jewels used to hold the king. Now, the gold and silver jewels are gone, and the castle stands old and strong. The castle-like building is surrounded by high walls and a drawbridge at the main entrance. The castle hall in the middle, once the residence of the British Governor, is now the site of important events. The 18th century building next to the castle is the town hall.

放飞自我去游玩
Thought it was a monument, it turned out to be a very ordinary bridge. Just a bit of historical allusion. This bridge was the only pedestrian bridge that could cross the Lifei River at that time. In 1816, the Irish built a beautiful light bridge on the river to connect Dublin's north and south city areas, which was only for pedestrians. When the bridge was built, the pedestrian crossing notice stated that half a penny of the bridge was required, so there was a "half penny bridge".

Experience the strong European and American architecture Castletown house, is a very European and American style building, come here mainly to investigate the local customs, used in paintings, have been listening to friends say that the building here is very distinctive, there are classical beauty and modern beauty, specially come here to investigate and investigate. The modern love in the classical is like the hall in the European and American TV dramas. The luxurious and luxurious, multi-story retro-style small building is decorated with chandeliers and everything around it. It can't say how precious the accessories around it are, so that the beauty and grandeur here make it colorful. It is its unique architectural style, classical and modern ingenious integration, there is a feeling of natural. The most amazing thing is the stairs, especially beautiful, often appearing in TV shows. The garden outside the castle is very large, the garden is lush and suitable for wandering, the main biggest discovery is that there are lakes in the garden, and there are a few swans in the lake. Swans are not afraid of people. They can get in close contact with them and take photos by the way. I miss it, I know the main points of attention: the swans in the lake can not feed the castle: the murals in the castle, the building can take pictures of food: there is no unique food nearby, you can bring snacks, you must bring your own garbage bag season: February and March are the best seasons.

秋风南逝
Grandalo, a mountainous clustering place, a place for outings - a monastery that will surprise everyone. I have been in the monastery, and I really feel surprised. The high round tower, the tombstones on the ground, the building with only the remaining walls, at first made me think of the place that I had been fighting, and listened to the explanations of the local people. Sure enough, so this is also a sacred place. It retains the blood and the spirit of the country when fighting. There are many people who like to rest here, and of course it is not just sitting on the ground, if you like, but even pouring on the lawn. Once I fell on the lawn, watching all this like a movie scene, beautiful and comfortable, the children in front of me playing, and I fell on the lawn, watching them play, some people fly kites, some people pray, some people picnic. A little further away, there will be a small lake, where someone will even swim in it, which may be a little incredible to me, but it is a very unusual thing. They would sit on the big rocks by the lake to accompany the swimmers, and some would jump into the lake to play, which was just an outing for them.

The former residence of Wilde in Dublin is a place many fairy tale lovers yearn for. Wilde is the author of famous fairy tale dramas, famous works such as the Happy Prince, and his residence retains many manuscripts of his life and his tools and furniture. But it is not open to the public now, so everyone can only visit from the door.
