A Shamrock special site

It is a great big world with a lot of places left to learn about. But for St. Patrick's Day I wanted to post one in Ireland that sounds worth getting to know better, The Burren. Burren is a limestone region recognized as an UNESCO World Heritage site where the geology is impressive both at the surface and underground. The site is not only a unique physiological landscape, but it is also a place of great history and archeology. It is one more thing that makes Ireland unlike any other island in the world.
