About Dublin

Dublin is Ierlands vriendelijke, literaire hoofdstad aan de Liffey, met Georgiaanse pleinen, historische pubs, livemuziek en een talent voor verhalen.

Trinity College bewaart het verluchte Book of Kells en de torenhoge bibliotheek Long Room, terwijl Dublin Castle, Christ Church Cathedral en St Patrick's Cathedral het middeleeuwse en koloniale verleden van de stad schetsen. Georgiaanse pleinen als Merrion Square, met hun felgekleurde deuren, en de groene ruimte van St Stephen's Green zorgen voor elegante rust.
