A Visitors Guide to Dublin Ireland

You are going to Dublin, Ireland. Maybe it is your first trip or maybe you are a return visitor. Either way it is always a good idea to make a few travel plans before you pack your bags.

When you plan a trip to Dublin there are some things to keep in mind. The weather is always something to be prepared for. You will find that the weather in Dublin is always changing and it is certainly not something you can count on. Even in July and August when the weather is at its warmest it still does not get hot. If there is a warm and sunny day it is a good plan to have a jacket with you because it can turn cool, windy or even rainy in a very short amount of time.

There are many things to see and do in Dublin although there is not one main attraction. There are attractions on both sides of the River Liffey. One of these attractions is the Molly Malone statue. It is located at the bottom of Grafton Street.

The best shopping in Dublin is close to the Molly Malone Statue so you may want to see the statue and shop on the same day. The south side of the River Liffey is where the most popular museums are located as well. If you want to see a beautiful cathedral or two you will find them in this region, too.

Dont forget about the north side of the river. Here you will find a fascinating atmosphere on Henry Street and Moore Street. Tourists seem to enjoy this area and you can visit museums and find good places to eat. If you enjoy spending time in a park, you are in for a treat. The Phoenix Park is a great park and is actually larger than Hyde Park and Central Park.

One of the largest city parks in the world is located in Dublin. The Phoenix Park has 1730 acres and is bigger than both Central Park and Hyde Park.

Other places you may want to put on your itinerary are; the Dublin Castle, Merrion Square, Leinster House, the Dublin Writers Museum, and the National Gallery. The Guinness Brewery is also a popular stop as is Trinity College.
