From Vikings to Robin Hood: A Brilliant Tour
King John's Castle的点评
点评：I really enjoyed visiting King John’s Castle in Limerick. Duillean, one of the guides working in the courtyard, was especially memorable. He was very friendly and had a really engaging way of explaining the history without making it feel like a formal lecture.
One thing I found funny was learning about King John himself. I knew the name from the castle, but I had completely forgotten that he was the villain in the Robin Hood stories! Duillean explained the connection and then went on to talk about the history of Limerick, the Norman period, the Vikings, religious conflicts, and the different groups of people who have shaped the city over the centuries. I was also particularly surprised to hear about the conflict with William of Orange and its place in Limerick’s history.
He was also happy to answer questions, play Peg’s Nim with visitors, and recommend other places to visit around Limerick and Ireland. What stood out most was how enthusiastic he was about the history. He really has a way of making it feel alive rather than something you’re just reading on a sign. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in Limerick.

翻译：我非常享受参观利默里克的约翰王城堡。在庭院里担任导游的杜伊伦给人留下了深刻印象。他非常友善，讲解历史的方式也极富吸引力，丝毫没有那种正式讲座的生硬感。
有个细节让我觉得挺有趣的：我原来只知道约翰王的名字与这座城堡相关，却完全忘了他其实是《罗宾汉》故事里的反派角色呢！杜伊兰解释了其中的关联，随后讲述了利默里克的历史：诺曼时期、维京人、宗教冲突，以及几个世纪以来塑造这座城市的各个族群。听到与威廉三世相关的冲突及其在利默里克历史中的地位时，我也感到格外惊讶。
他还乐于回答游客的提问，和来访者一起玩“佩格的 Nim”游戏，并推荐利默里克及爱尔兰其他地区值得游览的景点。最让人印象深刻的是他对历史的满腔热情。他总能巧妙地让历史“活”起来，而不会让它显得只是刻在牌子上供人阅读的枯燥文字。如果你来到利默里克，这里绝对值得一游。
