Ashford Castle, Cong, Ireland (All photos are mine)

I didn’t realize what a penchant I have for cathedrals and churches because I’m not a particularly religious person but I also love mosques and temples so what does that say about me?

I always knew I loved castles. My very favourite castle is Gruyères Castle in Switzerland and my next favourite would be the Haut-Koenigsbourg Castle in Alsace, France. Ashford Castle in Cong, Ireland would be next. What do all of these castles have in common? Can you guess?

I didn’t realise how obsessed I am with cathedrals and churches — I have hundreds of photos! I’ve just chosen a few to show here.

Coincidentally, some of the cathedrals are also in C towns — Canterbury Cathedral and Córdoba Cathedral are two that come to mind.
