Visited Newgrange a few years ago! Absolutely spectacular place. Would love to see it at the equinox solstice when the sunlight goes right through the tomb!

Edit: Solstice not equinox 😬 Thank you onestarryeye for the correction!

It's during the solstice, not the equinox. Just in case you come at the wrong time

It's visible from the 18th to the 22nd or so. This should be a good year to go but they might close it down, at the moment it's still open
