点评:Our visit to Blarney Castle was nothing short of enchanting. With a soft Irish rain misting the grounds, it truly felt like we had stepped into a fairytale. The castle itself is incredibly impressive, steeped in history and charm. As you make your way up the winding spiral staircase, plaques and signs along the way offer fascinating insights into its storied past.
A Note for Families:
The spiral stairs are quite narrow, which adds to the authenticity but could be challenging for anyone with claustrophobia. As a parent, I’d advise against bringing a baby or small toddler up the tower. While safety bars are in place, they may not be fully reassuring for very small children. It’s definitely more suitable for kids aged 5 and up who can handle the climb and excitement safely.
Reaching the top is absolutely worth it. The incredible views of the lush Irish countryside are breathtaking and, for us, deeply romantic. It was one of those moments that made us pause, hold hands, and just take it all in.
And then of course, there’s the legendary Blarney Stone! Kissing it was a total thrill. You do have to lean quite far back, assisted by staff, and just when you think you’re close enough, you’ll likely need to stretch that little bit more to reach it. It’s exhilarating and memorable, a must-do moment! Such a rush!
We ended our visit with a walk through the beautiful gardens, which were the perfect, peaceful way to unwind after the climb. The grounds are meticulously kept and bursting with color and life.
Before leaving, I purchased a delicate silver Claddagh ring from the gift shop to commemorate the visit. A keepsake for a memory I’ll always treasure.
翻译:我们参观布拉尼城堡的旅程简直令人陶醉。爱尔兰的细雨轻柔地洒落在城堡的庭院中,仿佛置身于童话世界。城堡本身令人印象深刻,历史悠久,魅力非凡。沿着蜿蜒的螺旋楼梯拾级而上,沿途的牌匾和标志会带您领略其悠久的历史。
家庭须知:
螺旋楼梯相当狭窄,这增加了真实感,但对于患有幽闭恐惧症的人来说可能颇具挑战性。作为家长,我建议不要带婴儿或幼儿上塔。虽然塔内设有安全栏杆,但对于幼儿来说,它们可能并非完全安全。5岁及以上的孩子更适合能够安全攀爬并体验刺激的体验。
登上塔顶绝对值得。爱尔兰乡村郁郁葱葱的美景令人叹为观止,对我们来说,更是浪漫至极。那一刻,我们驻足停留,手牵手,将一切尽收眼底。
当然,还有那块传奇的巧言石!亲吻它真是太刺激了。你需要在工作人员的帮助下,身体后仰很远,而就在你以为够近的时候,可能还需要再伸个懒腰才能碰到它。这令人兴奋又难忘,绝对不容错过!真是太刺激了!
我们以漫步在美丽的花园中结束了这次旅程,这是攀登之后放松身心的完美而宁静的方式。花园维护得一丝不苟,色彩缤纷,生机勃勃。
离开之前,我在礼品店买了一枚精致的银质克拉达戒指来纪念这次参观。这件纪念品将永远珍藏我的美好回忆。
