Very nice castle or abbey, church and landscape
Kylemore Abbey & Victorian Walled Garden的点评
点评:Kylemore Abbey & Victorian Walled Gardens are located on the shore of the Pollacappul Lough, a lake in the surroundings of Connemara National Park, in Western Ireland. It was built in the middle of the 19th Century as a private residence (in fact, it was a castle), but when the house woman died in a journey, it was sold. After, it was bought by Benedicte nuncs and it was reconverted in an Abbey and after into a boarding school, which closed in 2010. Nowadays, it is possible to visit the main gothic building, the church, the graveyard of the first owners and a victorian garden. Really, it is a place to walk and relax, especially if you come here not in high season. A very nice place to know the history and enjoy the landscapes: mountains, lake and views of the national park. Also, a very good plan to come with children all the day.

翻译:凯尔莫尔修道院和维多利亚围墙花园位于爱尔兰西部康尼马拉国家公园周围的 Pollacappul 湖岸边。它建于 19 世纪中叶,作为私人住宅(实际上是一座城堡),但当女管家在一次旅行中去世时,它被出售。后来,它被本笃会修女买下,并改建成修道院,后来又改建成寄宿学校,该学校于 2010 年关闭。如今,可以参观主要的哥特式建筑、教堂、第一任主人的墓地和维多利亚式花园。真的,这是一个散步和放松的地方,特别是如果你不是在旺季来这里的话。这是一个了解历史和欣赏风景的好地方:山脉、湖泊和国家公园的景色。此外,带孩子来这里玩一整天也是个不错的计划。
