    Co. Dublin, Ireland."

    is Killiney, delightfully situated on the sea front with a fine beach. The Vico Road between
    Dalkey and Killiney gives splendid views of Killiney Bay, which has often been compared
    to the Bay of Naples. The wooded Killiney Hill (512 feet), crowning which is a quaint
    obelisk, gives incomparable views of the Bay, Bray Head and the Wicklow Mountains."
