Apparently constructed on 4000 year old graves, the museum is really interesting and I was surprised at the range of artefacts on show! Prehistoric items as well as some external ruins are the oldest bits but it;s certainly all worth seeing, and it's quiet in there too which is great with a hangover.

This is the craziest museum i've ever been to, it's totally stuck in a time warp and evokes a time when ipods hadn't even been conceived of because computers didn't exist! Taxidermy is the word of the day, and seeing all the native Irish animals really was very interesting.

A totally delightful place, the building itself is lovely, and the collections are great too. I love the Andalusian architecture and all the ornate carvings and details. The pottery was the best bit for me I have to say.

What a room! The vatican museums are great all round but the sistene chapel is most definitely the highlight, the ceiling, the last judgment, I really could have sat for hours and hours just finding new things, it's quite busy though.
