Photos 1 - 19: Blarney Castle dates back to 1200 and now serves as a tourist attraction. After climbing narrow spiral stairs to the top, there is a view of greenery and a line to kiss the Blarney Stone. A man helps each person bend over and make the reach to the lucky stone. After having this memorable moment, there is the Blarney Woollen Mills for souvenir shopping and wool clothes.
