Dublin up on the fun!!

It’s often said that if one has to make a historical film, Dublin would be the perfect location. A place which inspired prominent literary figures like George Bernard Shaw, Samuel Beckett, Oscar Wilde, Jonathan Swift and many more is the perfect haunt for those who admire poetry and are poets at heart. The largest city and the capital of Ireland, Dublin also finds a mention in the writings of the Greek astronomer, Ptolemy, indicating that the earliest clues of human habitation were found here. And, indeed, on stepping foot in this Irish city, one can sense the spirit and celebration of ‘olden times’ floating in the air.

In Europe, any celebration is incomplete without downing drinks, and this is particularly true for Dublin; every happy moment is a celebration which allows its residents and visitors easy access to the watering holes which are aplenty in the city. So ideally, one could enjoy a visit to several museums like The National Museum of Ireland, and libraries throughout the day and after penning down a poem or two (if you so please!) at the banks of River Liffey, head straight to Harcourt Street, Wexford Street or Camden Street to relax at the pubs. It is also very interesting to grab a corner table and observe the youthfulness of Dublin's nightlife. Bestowed with rich culture, evenings in Dublin are replete with entertainment. Apart from the buzz of the pubs, one can also watch musicals and plays at the theatres in the city centre. The Gaiety, the most popular theatre in Dublin, hosts many musicals and films; so do the Abbey, the Olympia and the Gate, the other well known theatres in the vicinity.

One activity that makes the visit of every tourist complete is shopping, and Dublin offers plenty of options. The Dublin city centre is a shopper’s delight where one can purchase all sorts of stuff – from branded to the local Irish clothing – and other keepsakes. If your vacation includes some heavy-duty shopping, then it’s recommended to spare a day to visit the shopping hubs like Grafton Street, Stephen’s Green Shopping Centre and Henry Street.

Dublin is also one of the most sought after destinations for higher education in Ireland. With as many as three universities and several other institutes for higher education, one can find a lot of chipper young students in the city. In fact, Dublin is a rather young city, what with almost half the population being below 25 years of age… So get your act together to be in step with the vibrant inhabitants of the city of Dublin.
