Getting bored in Dublin is just not possible. Location wise Dublin has everything ... city living but yet you are only minutes away from either beautiful beaches or fabulous mountains.

Dublin / Drumcondra area

Dublin, as a European City of Culture has an abundance of tourist attractions. Many are within walking distance of each other and within the city centre confines.

Trinity College
Triniry College is the oldest university in Ireland. Founded in 1592 by Queen Elizabeth I, the College is in an enviable position in the very heart of Ireland’s capital and in 1992 celebrated 400 years. The campus contains a unique collection of buildings dating from the 17th to the 20th century. The College is famed for the great treasures it has the honour to be guardian off. These include the BOOK OF KELLS, a 9th century illuminated manuscript, the books of Durrow and Armagh and an early Irish harp. These are displayed in The Colonnades exhibition Gallery and the Long Room which is the most impressive library in the College housing over 200,000 of Trinity’s oldest books

A trip along the Liffey
As Eddie Rabbit said in the Commitments there are two Dublin's, North & South. The Liffey is the border. The river rises in the Wicklow mountains near Poulaphuca , south of Dublin. it enters the Irish Sea at Dublin Bay. It is over 120Kms long. It is spanned by many bridges in the city.
The first one is Sean Heuston bridge, located near the entrance to the Phoenix Park, the last bridge is the East link bridge, not far east of the Customs House.
The sights along the Liffey include the National Museum, Customs House and Guinness Brewery.

O’Connell Street
The sights along O’Connell Street include :
General Post Office (GPO). Scene of intense fighting during the 1916 Rising. The building was reconstructed after the Rising. A statue of Cuchulainn is on display in the main area.
Anna Livia, a monument in celebration of Dublin's life blood, The Liffey. Dubliners are well known for their subtle sense of humour have named it "The Floozy in the Jacuzzi"
At the top of O'Connell St in Parnell St and just beyond the Rotunda Hospital you will find the Garden of Remembrance. A tribute to those who died in the War for Independence.

Stephens Green
A favourite meeting place for the people of Dublin. It is a meeting place for students from nearby Trinity College, workers from the offices and shops that surround the park, tourists and shoppers from nearby Grafton St. It was originally a walled area with walks surrounding it. The area was levelled and walled in 1678 and a ditch dug round it. The four sides, each a quarter of a mile in length, were known as Leeson’s Walk (S), French Walk (W), Beaux’ Walk (N) and Monks’s Walk (E).

Moore Street Market
An wonderful open market selling fruit, vegetables and meat. The Moore Street traders have fought vigorously to maintain their market. A great opportunity to meet some really remarkable Dublin characters.

Grafton Street
"Grafton street is heaven with coffee at 11 and a stroll round Stephens Green" or so the song goes. Surrounding Grafton street are many pubs and hotels made famous by Dublin's literary greats. McDaid's in Harry St, boasted Brendan Behan, Patrick Kavanagh and Flann O'Brien as regulars. Davy Byrne's Lounge, visited in James Joyce's "Ulysses" Duke St, Peter's Pub Johnson place, frequented by Brendan Behan's family. The Bailey, many literary associations with this pub. At the bottom of Grafton St, the Trinity end, you will find a monument to one of Dublin's best known characters "Molly Malone"

Casino - Marino
Casino is located at Marino, just off the Malahide Road and only 3 miles north of the centre of Dublin. It was designed by Sir William Chambers as a pleasure house for James Caulfeild, 1st Earl of Charlemont. It is one of the finest 18th century neo-classical buildings in Europe. The Casino, meaning "small house", surprisingly contains a total of 16 finely decorated rooms.

Kilmainham Gaol
One of the largest unoccupied gaols in Europe, covering some of the most heroic and tragic events in Ireland’s emergence as a modern nation from 1780s to the 1920s. Attractions include a major exhibition detailing the political and penal history of the prison and its restoration. The tour of the prison includes an audio-visual show.

Pearse Museum
Located at Grange Road, Rathfarnam, the former school run by Patrick Pearse, now a museum in beautiful grounds. Attractions include exhibitions, a nature study room with attractive displays on Irish flora and fauna and an audio-visual show titled "This Man Kept a School".

St. Mary's Abbey
Located at Meetinghouse Lane, off Chapel Street, the Abbey was founded in 1139 as a daughter house of the Benedictine Order of Savigny but became Cistercian in 1147. It was, until its suppression in the 16th century, one of the largest and most important monasteries in Ireland. The Heritage Service along with the Dublin Archaeological Society and the History of Art Department of Trinity College, Dublin, have put together an interesting exhibition.
