The wild and rugged landscape of the region of Connemara in the west of Ireland is like nothing I’ve seen before. It is where the famous Connemara Marble is mined. The mountains reflect the different shades of green that can be found in the marble. It’s truly a sight to behold. It’s also where the famous Connemara pony breed comes from. I can’t wait to return.
Have you been to the region of Connemara before? If so what did you think?
The area looks absolutely stunning! It’s like nothing I’ve ever seen before either, and I’m dying to see it!! Pinned this to my bucket list on pinterest!

Thank you 😊 Yes that’s Kylemore Abbey. It was built as a honeymoon present and now it’s an abbey for Benedictine nuns.

Oh wow, Connemara looks so stunning! I have always wanted to go, because we had a Connemara horse when I was growing up. Will pin this for future reference.
