Cliffs of Moher, Natural cliffs in Liscannor, Ireland.

The black limestone cliffs extend for eight kilometers along the Atlantic coast and rise to a height of 214 meters.

The construction of O'Brien's Tower in 1835 marked the beginning of organized tourism at this location in County Clare.

The rock faces provide essential nesting grounds for numerous seabird species, including puffins, guillemots, and razorbills throughout the year.

The visitor center, built into the hillside near O'Brien's Tower, features interactive exhibitions about local geology and wildlife.

The stratified rock layers display 320 million years of geological history, marking the western edge of the Burren formation.
