Ireland's capital is also its largest city. Dublin is a city famed or its rich literary and cultural heritage and it's friendly and fun loving locals. Cut in two by the River Liffey several bridges span the river any of which make for a glorious stroll. Dublin has given us famed figures such as Joyce, Beckett and Yeats and Trinity college and College Green are synonymous with this rich heritage. This is also a city of pretty contrasts with mediaeval castles and cathedrals jostling for space with handsome Georgian architecture from the 18th century when Dublin was at the peak of its powers with its position in the British empire. Dublin life inevitably includes a visit to the pub and the city offers more than a 1000 of them all with a history of their own.
