The Irish flag, created in 1848, features green, white and orange bands representing Catholics, unity, and Protestants.

Cloughjordan is a village in North Tipperary, Ireland located along the River Shannon. It has a population of around 783. The village dates back to Norman times and gets its name from a stone brought back from the River Jordan by the first Norman resident. In the late 17th century, the village was further developed by Cromwellian grantee John Harrison, who was granted land in the area and built Cloughjordan House. Today, the village is working on an eco-village project to create a sustainable community on 67 acres of farmland that will merge with the existing village.Ireland mrp

The Wicklow Mountains were formed during the Pleistocene epoch through glacial activity that carved out U-shaped valleys. Due to clearing, forests in the area had to be replanted in the early 20th century. While Irish elk and wolves used to live in the mountains, now the main animals are sheep and sika deer. St. Kevin's Bed is a small Bronze Age tomb where St. Kevin lived. The Round Tower of Glendalough was built as a landmark and place of sanctuary. Glendalough cemetery has been used for burials since the monastic settlement up to the present day.Ireland (2nd Group)

The Giant's Causeway is an area of approximately 40,000 interlocking basalt columns located in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, which was formed by an ancient volcanic eruption. It was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1986 and is one of Northern Ireland's most popular tourist attractions. The basalt columns were formed approximately 60 million years ago during the separation of the North American and Eurasian tectonic plates, resulting in volcanic activity that produced lava flows which solidified into hexagonal columns as they cooled.Ireland

Skellig Michael is a mountainous island off the coast of Ireland famous for its appearance in Star Wars. It has the largest bird colony in Ireland with over 4,000 puffins. Skellig Michael was declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1996 due to its unique early Christian monastery built on pyramidal rock in the ocean, which illustrates the extremes of monasticism. The monastery survived Viking raids in the 9th century and was expanded around the year 1000. It was inhabited by approximately 12 monks and an abbot who obtained fish, shellfish, eggs, and vegetables for sustenance.

The garden of the senses
- 1. The Garden of the Senses This garden was designed to appeal to our five senses and to be inviting to all members of society. The Project was inspired by Soroptimist International Tralee & District, under its then President Maura Baily, in 2000. The Garden places strong emphasis on ancient Hanley History of Ireland. Sight: The Standing Stone is aligned with Scotia's Glen on sliabh Mis, where Milesian Celts defeated the ruling Tuatha Dé Dannan and Scotia's Son Amergin, promised to name the island after the vanquished Queen Eire. Touch: This piece, which invites touch, was inspired by the Neolithic henge, itself a circular or oval area of ground, formed by a boundary ditch and earthen bank. The sites are interpreted as settlement and ceremonial centres. A number of henges have been found in the valley of Tralee. Taste: The Cauldron of the Dagda was one of the four great treasures of the Tuatha De Danann. The Dagda was a leader of the Tuatha Dé and was known as the "Good God" not because he was moralistic but simply good. The cauldron was a vessel of endless bounty "from which none returned unfulfilled". Sound: A hoard of 6 Bronze Age horns was found in a bog at Clogherclemin, outside Tralee in 1875. The Garden Horns celebrate the craftsmanship of the ancient Irish. Scent:
- 2. Cathaoir Cú RoÃ, the chair of Cú Roà Mac Daire, was brought to the garden from Sliabh Mis. Cú Roà was the King of West Munster and a great wizard. He gave his name to the ancient fort of Caherconree which stands high on the western end of the mountains about 10 miles from Tralee. In the garden, the old red sandstone boulder sits among scented plants. .
