Dublin

[Tasha87]

Can any one suggest things to do and see in Dublin? And any good bars or restaurants? Thanks

temple bar street is the most famous street full of pubs in city centre.
can measily go to seaside, there is biggest city park in dublin, phonix park, lots shops in city centre, or you can go to Dundrum shopping centre, which probably the biggest shopping mall in europe.

Several ABer's (myself included) have frequently recommended Gallagher's Boxty House for a great meal at sensible prices:

In most cities I'd advise avoiding the open-top tours. However, Dublin's attractions are well spread out and using the hop-on, hop-off services makes a lot of sense. (You also get discounts on certain attractions).

The Guinness Storehouse is very popular. There are some great views of the city from the top, which you can enjoy while savouring the 'free' pint which is included in price of admission:

Get a train to Galway. You won't regret it for a second!!

Everything is 25% less expensive, including the most fantastically friendly B and B's.

No I'm Scots and only visited there once, two years ago regretfully. But I will be going back!

Take the dart (local train) to Malahide. A beautful little village, about 10 miles away. Well worth the trip.
