We already booked our tickets on the day that concerns the max time to pre-book and only got a few free slots left. Newgrange is well worth seeing, together with Knowth one of the oldest witnesses here in Ireland. In addition, an important indication of how many % of the Irish population are related to the inhabitants of that time.

Brú na Bóinne, which means the ‘palace’ or the ‘mansion’ of the Boyne, refers to the area within the bend of the River Boyne which contains one of the world’s most important prehistoric landscapes. It is located close to the east coast of Ireland approximately 40 km north of Dublin city, about 8km west of the medieval town of Drogheda and about 5km east of the village of Slane. It's a superb venue to visit to get a snapshot of ancient Ireland and it is a Unesco World Heritage Site.
