In evidenza

The Dublin Riviera is a guided coastal walk back in time to a golden era where local residents and visitors wined and dined in the yacht clubs, restaurants and hotels along the waterfront, and danced in the Pavilion, the ballrooms and the nightclubs. The walk will provide an insight into the symbiotic relationship between the harbour and the town and how this helped Dún Laoghaire to evolve into an elegant and glamorous centre of hospitality, entertainment and luxurious bathing, a “Dublin Riviera”. The walk is led by Eileen O'Duffy, a local historian and the author of two books, ‘From Dirt and Dips to Dryrobes, bathing in Dun Laoghaire through the ages’ and ‘Champagne, Cocktails and Crêpes Suzette, wining, dining and dancing in Dún Laoghaire through the ages’ 11.30 am Pick and meet up is just a 3-minute walk from the Dún Laoghaire cruise passenger drop-off point at the entrance to Quarterdeck, Harbour Plaza (entrance to Old Ferry Terminal).

About Dublino

Dublino, accogliente capitale letteraria d'Irlanda sul Liffey: piazze georgiane, pub storici, musica dal vivo e arte del racconto.

Il Trinity College custodisce il Libro di Kells miniato e la maestosa biblioteca della Long Room, mentre il Castello di Dublino, la Christ Church Cathedral e la Cattedrale di San Patrizio ripercorrono il passato medievale e coloniale della città. Le piazze georgiane come Merrion Square, con le loro porte dai colori vivaci, e la distesa verde di St Stephen's Green offrono un'elegante calma.
