Tipperary is one of the most beautiful of the inland counties. In every district the scenery has some special charm to arrest the attention of the tourist. Taking the Limerick Junction as the point of departure by rail toward Waterford, the first of a series of lovely pictures is presented at Cahir, with the Galtees in the back ground. Here the Suir enters between wooded and sloping grassy banks, passing under the castellated railway viaduct, sweeping by the ruined abbey and the lofty ivy-covered ancient castle. The river is hidden from the railway in its course through Ardfinnan, and Marlfield, but reappears at Clonmel, enhanced in attractiveness by the Waterford Mountains, picturesque glens, and extensive plantations.
