6. HANG UPSIDE-DOWN TO KISS A ROCK // IRELAND
爱尔兰:倒挂亲吻石头

The legendary Blarney Stone at Ireland’s Blarney Castle attracts visitors who kiss the stone to get the gifts of good luck and eloquence. Visitors who want its good luck must walk to the top of the castle, lean backwards, and hold on to a railing so their lips can reach the stone. Kissing the inconveniently located stone is a risky enough process that castle employees help visitors by holding on to their bodies as they lean back.
位于爱尔兰布拉尼城堡的巧言石充满传奇色彩。无数游客们前来亲吻它以祈求好运和口才。他们要走到城堡顶部,握住把手同时身体向后倾,然后亲吻石头。石头的位置不太好够到,而且这么做风险比较大,所以城堡的工作人员会在游客后倾的时候扶住他们的身体。
