    Hiking

    A picturesque place! The eighteenth-century temple now stands by erosion right on the cliffs.

    Built as a library for an eccentric bishop, this dramatic folly atop a cliff is one of Ireland's most popular landmarks.

    Hiking

    It was a library, a retreat, a memorial to a somewhat scandalous love story and now it is one of the most popular and photographed buildings in Ireland.
