Glasnevin cemetery

Yesterday we had our last trip programmed. We visited Glasnevin cemetery a very important place due to all the people who are buried there(1.5 million) and the important people to Ireland's History whose tombs are there. The guide showed us where Daniel O'Connell, Michael Collins, Parnell or De Varela are buried, and she also explained to us their importance in the History of this country. She showed us some tombs of Irish who fought in the Spanish Civil War, as well as where all the people who fought in the World Wars.
It is a pity that the group didn't find it so interesting, because they don't know about Irish History and those famous names didn't sound familiar to them, although now they know a little bit more.
