What travelers say:

Lonely monuments on the cliffs - The Lonely Castle of Dunganus We saw this castle on the island of Inismore in Ireland, which stands alone on the cliff edge, at the foot of the North Atlantic sea. The whole castle was a moon-shaped, and it seemed to me more of a stone fortress than a castle, with a circle of stone walls stacked from the inside out, which was the largest stone fortress on the island. We heard the explanations that the castle was built in the Bronze Age more than 3,000 years ago, and I looked at these thick and tall stone walls and I really don't know how people from that era did it. There is a visitor center on the island of tips, providing a variety of tourist services, about 8km from the castle. Many places near the cliff are not guardrails, so it is good to see from a distance, and you must be careful when you approach. The castle ticket is about 2 euros, and the scenery and unique relics are still great! The opening time of the castle is about 10 am to 4 pm every day, and the spring and summer season may be closed later. We walked around the cliff because it was a bit cold, so we returned to the visitor center after about an hour of strolling. We recommend bringing a windproof coat and then accompanying the lonely castle for a while!
