If you visit the Dingle Peninsula you must visit the Gallarus Oratory. It’s an early Christian church, possibly built in the 6th century. There is a visitor centre but don’t be fooled into paying the entrance fee. The building is a national monument and the public have a right to see it. Your entrance fee does pay for a crummy video in a dark and musty room but to be honest it’s not worth it! Continue up the road and you’ll find a path leading directly to the church.
Your taxes pay for the upkeep of the building so why pay another charge to see it?

  1. Nice! I love the colors and the winding path.

  2. hi!
    cheers for the flickr import comments plugin…I couldn’t comment on that page so i’ll have to do it here ^_^;;

    BTW that’s a really nice photo! The sky is moody; contrasts well with the vibrant green of the grass. The overall feel I get from the photo is loneliness. Cheers!
