Visit the Temple district, go to the profound Trinity College, visit (for me anyway) the Dublin Writers Museum, go to the main street of Dublin. Spend time in the parks, see the houses of parliament.

Wander around the wonderful cobble streets of particularly for me the Temple District was the most interesting. Bands, eating out, people talking.

Dublin is a very relaxed place. Talk to the people. They all have wonderful accents and they seemed to have positive attitudes about everything. A relaxing place to spend some time in Dublin. Go and see U2's house if you wish, although we didn't when we were there. Maybe you'll see them around town. My friend did when she lived there years ago.

Enjoy the history and the character of Dublin! Of course how can I forget the awe inspiring Long Room which houses millions of books published in the UK for centuries. the book shelves tower above you in magnificent wooden structures! This struck me - made me speechless! Go there.

And trinity college with the oldest in tact Three gospels of the New Testament - amazing! To see how ornate they decorated it and how they spent so much time. Looking at something that is 800 years old is amazing as well!
