Great site to visit
This beautiful site is most famous for having been the headquarters of the Kings of pre-Christian Ireland, who came to the thrown after winning in battle. They only came into power after the battle, not through an inherited monarchy. It is believed that 142 kings have ruled Ireland from there. The buildings have not survived but then there are remnants remain and have been etched into the surface of the hill. All circumferences and profiles of the old buildings are included in a large circle on the ground, dating back to the Iron Age.
The ancient religion and mythology of Temair, this place in Ireland was considered a sacred place, an abode of the gods, and was the entrance to another world. St. Patrick is said to have come to Tara to confront the ancient religion of the pagans in place of major importance. In the pictures you see the Real Seat, the main mound. In the center, you'll be able to see the Lia Fail or Stone of Destiny, a Neolithic menhir presiding over this hill for more than 4000 years.
