The town of Killarney enjoys an exceptional geographical situation. A situation which naturally attracts busloads of tourists, especially at the arrival of the beautiful days. One comes there especially to explore the very popular Killarney National Park and the famous Ring of Kerry. As for the history of the town, it is closely linked to religion. Indeed, in the 7th century, a monastery was founded by Saint Finian on the island of Inisfallen and Killarney became an important religious center. But it is only in the XVIIIth century that Killarney really developed, when Lord Kenmare made of it a tourist center. Since, tourism did not cease developing and the visitors are more and more numerous. Whereas Killarney already counts an impressive number of accommodations, several hotel projects took shape... to the point that, price of the success, certain inhabitants complain not to find any more lodging for themselves at affordable prices.The town of Killarney itself has nothing really exceptional and is essentially concentrated around a main street, the famous High Street, where you can find most of the restaurants, pubs, cafés and other souvenir stores of the town. But it is obviously around the township that the real natural wealth of this very popular area is found
