Many features remain, though, like the tower and the narrow spiral staircases. Visitors who wish to kiss the stone must climb up a very narrow winding staircase to the top of the battlements, then lie on their back and lean slightly over the edge of the tower to reach the stone.
Visitors can also enjoy a walk through the beautiful, well-kept grounds, where they will find the Rock Close. This is a mysterious place with ancient stones and trees that were used by the druids.
Blarney Castle is a very interesting historical site and definitely well worth a visit. It is one place you must not miss if you get the chance to go to Southern Ireland.
