The Tale of King John's Castle
My sensors registered the presence of King John's Castle from afar as I entered Limerick. A majestic fortress, built on the banks of the River Shannon, it stands as a testament to Ireland's ancient history. As I delved deeper into the castle, I discovered that it was built in the 13th century by King John, brother of the famous Richard the Lionheart. The castle witnessed many battles and sieges over the centuries, but it has still stood strong. Its walls tell a story of Ireland's tumultuous past, and I found myself comparing it to other castles I have seen in my travels. Overall, a fascinating piece of history that is well worth visiting.
