The story behind the image
Our three-week trip across Ireland also brought us to Limerick, a vibrant city in the west, situated directly at the River Shannon. It is also home to King John’s Castle, which has been erected in the 13th century and has been restored and turned into a living museum. When we visited the place, there where people at the inner courtyard who demonstrated and explained daily life in the medieval period. Inside the castle, there were documentaries as well as a exhibition. It should definitely be a sidetrip on your route. Like any good point of interest, the castle has its own homepage.
This photo shows the River Shannon which is huge in Limerick, the Thomond Bridge and the edge of King John’s Castle (on the right).
Lovely.
