Poulnabrone dolmen in The Burren
Gadling reports that Ireland has recently proposed seven sites to be included in the Tentative List for UNESCO World Heritage nomination. Among these are The Burren and Western Stone Forts which I just visited last week (an article appears below). The other five sites are the Historic Center of Dublin, the Céide Fields and North West Mayo Boglands, The Monastic City of Clonmacnoise and its Cultural Landscape, Early Medieval Monastic Sites, and the Royal Sites of Ireland including Cashel and Tara Complex.
I'm happy to read this report as Ireland is one beautiful country with supernatural scenery and rich history. The inclusion of its seven sites in the Tentative List would be well deserved.
