Muckross House and Gardens


The rhododendrons are about 30' tall and scattered throughout the gardens at Muckross House in Killarney National Park.


Lots of tulips, too, in all colors.


The Muckross House is a stone mansion built in the early 1800's for 30,000 pounds. Queen Victoria visited here for three days, and the family that owned the house spent six years preparing for her visit.
