Grand castles, miniature forests, manicured gardens, and wild natural beauty: The United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland offer surprising variety in a relatively small package. With this photo gallery we've set out to capture the unique spirit of the British Isles, while offering a few surprises for even the savviest Anglophile. Of course, any list of 10 can't begin to cover all the wonders, so please share your favorite part with other readers in the comments section at the bottom of each page. And, if you've got a great photo of a memorable destination in the U.K. or Ireland, enter it in our contest below!
