There is also a free public area that has a large gift shop, a to-go cafe, and a restaurant. We grabbed some food from the cafe and ate right outside under a tree; when (hopefully not if) we go back to Malahide Castle, we are going to take the to-go food into the public garden where it is quieter.

I loved the long, peaceful walk from the streets of (the town of) Malahide to Malahide castle.












The photos below are from the private gardens; the above photos were all from public areas.







These last three photos are from the public gardens.


This photo was taken from my favorite place in the public gardens: under a large tree with a great view of the back of the castle.

These pictures are UNREAL! Maybe it's the amazing colors, or maybe it's the scale of seeing you guys tucked amongst these epic gardens and ancient buildings, but these sights really seem totally breathtaking. That shot with the cemetery in the foreground is so beautifully framed -- I'm like viscerally attracted to the stone structure rising out of the distance.
