Dublin City remains one of the worlds most popular tourist destinations as the volume of visitors each and every year attests to. It is a vibrant young city which has come through some financial troubles throughout the years as well as more recently. It is a city steeped in history. There are few cities in the world that can match Dublin as a historical holiday destination.
It is of course also known as a party town with an abundance of pubs and clubs. Guinness is probably the most famous Irish drink. You may wish to visit the Guinness Storehouse and take the tour. There is a complimentary free pint of the black stuff at the end of each tour. Dublin is also hardly known for its warm climate so if you are feeling a cold chill in the evenings you may wish to relax with a hot Irish whiskey or an Irish Coffee.

The main street in Dublin is called O’Connell Street. There you will find the Spire as well as other well known spots such as the Gresham Hotel, Easons Books and the Savoy Cinema.
