Situated at the mouth of the River Liffey on the east coast, Dublin was originally a Viking settlement and later the second largest city in British Empire before becoming the capital of an independent Ireland in 1922. As one of Europe’s youngest cities, Dublin is perhaps best known for its spirited atmosphere and live music scene. But despite being the largest and most populated city in Ireland, Dublin prides itself on having 3,700 acres of parkland.
Rich in history there is no shortage of magnificent architecture to admire - start with Dublin Castle and Christ Church Cathedral. Renowned for its world class education, Trinity College is home to Ireland’s greatest cultural treasure, The Book of Kells. The National Library of Ireland housing more than 8 million works is regarded as one of the most important literary institutions in the world. There are many interesting facets of this dynamic city to explore.
