I know the expression is, “All roads lead to Rome”, but I figured since this blog post subject is meant to be taken literally, I’d switch up the saying.

With that in mind, here are a few pictures from towns leading up to/from the Cliffs of Moher:

Bunratty Castle – located in County Clare, Bunratty (or Bun Raite, in Irish – it means ‘end of the Ratty River’. The Ratty River flows into the Shannon River. (FYI – no flash is allowed inside the castle!)

The Burren – in Irish, it means, “Great Rock” and despite its composition, 3/4 of Ireland’s species of flowers can be found here.
