    Let's say someday the government announces the Seven Wonders of Ireland (which I think they should imo, a public vote :P), what do you think would/should be in it?

    For me:
    1. Cliffs of Moher
    2. Glendalough
    3. Newgrange
    4. The Skelligs
    5. Giant's Causeway
    6. Blarney Castle
    7. Marble Arch Caves/Ailwee Caves, can't decide my 7th :)

    Not a bad list, but I would replace Blarney with the Rock of Cashel or the ring of Kerry. It would be hard to pick 7, alot of great places.

    Blarney is way too twee, but I guess the tourists love it.

    The Cliffs of Mohair, as the yanks say, have been ruined for me because I stupidly got engaged there :mad:

    No way for Blarney, put there suggested Killary Fjord, Leenane, Connemamra.
    Apart from that, you're spot on.
