The most beautiful beech alley Dark Hedges is located in the Irish County of Antrim. Fans of the popular TV series Game of Thrones will surely remember the picturesque Royal Route.

Beech Alley was planted by the Stuart family in the 1750s, so the old trees are over 250 years old today. It was planned that the luxurious natural tunnel would be a "prelude" for visitors to the Gracehill estate. True, over the years it became clear that the alley is so good in itself that it can be considered a real landscape work of art.

The branches of the trees growing on both sides of the road were so tightly intertwined with each other that they formed an arched vault. Dark Hedges looks mysterious, almost mystical, when the rays of the setting sun shine through the crowns and trunks of these giants. Photographers come here with pleasure to enjoy the magical atmosphere and try to capture the miraculous beauty.
