Giant's Ring - Belfast

Ireland is full of these massive stone megaliths and they are very much part of the Irish countryside. The Giant's Ring, a massive circle of megaliths covering ten acres with a dolmen at its center just on the outskirts of Belfast is one of the most striking prehistoric monuments in Ireland.

The huge Ring made out of piled up stone and now covered with earth and grass, is a Neolithic king's burial site shaped like a donut with a dolmen in the center.
