It has inspired myths and legends for centuries — now world-famous Blarney Castle is set to inspire a love of jellyfish and the sea.

The jellyfish garden, a new concept garden that has been created in an old converted storehouse at the foot of the historic landmark in Cork, was officially opened last night.
