Dublin Destination Guide

Dublin is one of the oldest cities in Europe. When compared to some of the popular destinations across the globe Dublin can seem to be a rather costly place to visit if you are not prepared. Some of Dublin’s best and most popular tourist attractions such as the National Museum Of Ireland, Phoenix Park and St Patrick's Cathedral are however free to visit.

Why not enjoy a tour bus trips around Dublin to explore the city, and to make sure you don't miss the most prestigious city landmarks?  The world famous Guiness Stonehouse is high on most visitors' lists, and a trip to the Kilmainham Jail is also highly recommended.

By mixing the old and the new, Dublin now offers trendy bars, elegant restaurants and stylish shopping as well as the traditional features, history and culture.  A vital addition for any modern European city is a good shopping district, including designer amd boutique stores. Dublin is no exception, and there are bustling pedestrian shopping streets at the heart of the city.  With buskers and street performers to provide an entertaining temporary distraction from shopping there is always plenty to look at. There are also a number of shopping centres on the outskirts of Dublin which offer the same excellent choice of shops and stores all under one roof. If you explore further afield, and go to the surrounding towns,  you’ll find boutiques and unique craft shops stocking items you won’t find elsewhere.

Visiting the Dublin Tourism Centre is highly recommended, as it provides a wealth of information including what's on guides, and advises what to do and what not to miss during your stay in Dublin. The people of Dublin have remained positive and  upbeat, and their ironic, self-deprecating humour has seen them through the city's hard times. For all the historyand tradition,  and modern new shopping and street life, it is the Dublinners themselves who remain the city’s greatest asset.
