Two Yews at the End of the Rainbow

Our Easter Saturday treat was witnessing this beautiful rainbow descent upon ancient Acha Dá Eo, ‘The field of the two yew trees’.

This place, now known as Aghadoe, is very old and dates back to pre-Christian Ireland. The Aghadoe church and cemetery as we see it now is a relatively young 866 years old.

From here the view is a breathtaking mix of modern and ancient humanity with the town of Killarney below, beautiful Loch Leane beyond and the distant Kerry mountains as a spectacular backdrop.

Even without the rainbow, this place is gorgeous.
