The Phoenix Park is 1750 acres and the biggest public parks in Europe. Formed as a hunting park in 1660s, it was opened to the the public in 1740. And it is open 24 hours a day!

Anyone interested in architecture must see the Casino at Marino we’re so proud of this. Take a look.

Take the Dart to Howth, a fishing village close to the city centre.

Yes it is busy but worth the visit to see the library and the astonishing and beautiful Book of Kells – the colours, the script… Do book in advance.

The Cobblestone in Stoneybatter, no diddli ay di music here, this is real and good Irish music. * For music, check out what is on in Whelans on Wexford Street, Vicar Street on Thomas Street or the National Concert Hall.

Chester Beatty Library is a treasure. In the grounds of Dublin Castle it is quiet and fascinating.

Botanic Gardens are pretty fabulous, quiet and close to the city centre, they are beautiful and close to the city.
