Newgrange, a 5,200-year-old passage tomb in Ireland's Boyne Valley, is a must-see ancient wonder. Built by Stone Age farmers, this massive mound features a 19m passage leading to a chamber aligned with the winter solstice sun. It's older than Stonehenge and the Pyramids of Giza, and its intricate megalithic art and astrological significance make it a fascinating destination for history buffs and curious minds alike. Accessible only via guided tours from the Brú na Bóinne Visitor Centre, Newgrange offers a glimpse into Ireland's rich Neolithic past.
