St. Mary's Church is a beautiful old church and graveyard, right in the center of town. I recommend you stroll over to explore it. I didn't go inside. I was feeling shy about doing that, since the only person around was me.
Yes, the grass really is this green!! I love this color! How can a church graveyard be more perfect...?

This catholic cathedral was built in the 19th century in gothic style, so it’s no wonder that I thought it was older. At least this cathedral was opened in the evening, so we could visit the interior which is plain but nice!

St. Mary's Cathedral dominates the skyline and is visible from most roads leading into Kilkenny city. Just one of a number of the many churches in Kilkenny.
