Ruins of Dunluce Castle atop the Cliffs

Perched precariously upon verdant cliffs overlooking the North Atlantic Ocean in County Antrim, Northern Ireland, stands the historic ruins of Dunluce Castle. Originally built by the MacQuillans around AD 1500, this medieval fortress is renowned for its breathtaking location that has been featured prominently in various films such as 'Game of Thrones'. Despite being largely destroyed during an attack at the end of the 17th century, remnants like towering walls still offer visitors panoramic views of the rugged coastline below and the expansive sea beyond under a sky streaked with clouds.
