  The Burren, Co. Clare  
 
One of the most fascinating landscapes in Europe, the Burren is
a vast limestone menagerie of nooks and crannies. Composed of
limestone pavements, which are eroded in a distinctive pattern known
as karren. This pavement is crisscrossed by cracks known as grykes
and underneath, there are huge caves and rivers that suddenly flood
when it rains.
