I'm going to Dublin for the weekend can anyone tell me what are the must see attractions?

Answer 1

The Halfpenny Bridge. The book of Kells, a ride on the DART. O'Connell Street. Any pub serving Guinness

Answer 2

Temple Bar, if only to gasp at the prices they charge there.
Trinity College.
Kilmainham Jail, and the Irish Museum of Modern Art nearby, in the old Royal Hospital.
Take a trip on the DART all the way from Bray to Howth, it's gorgeous.
O'Connell Street and look for the bullet holes in the GPO building.
The Museum, it's on the LUAS line near Heuston Station.
Stephen's Green for people-watching (weather permitting).
Guinness Brewery ... well I suppose you MUST.
Hugh Lane Municipal Gallery.
Grafton Street.
Henry Street for the street sellers. The most densely populated street of iron lungs ever ...
There is an open-top bus tour that brings you to all the sights, might be worth checking out.

And once you have Dublin out of your system, you might like to come back and see the REAL Ireland.

Answer 3

why not have a walk over the half penny bridge, Then there is the guinness brewery you even get a half pint at the end of the tour. The Kilmainham Gaol (prison) which played an important part in Irish history, as many leaders of Irish rebellions were imprisoned and some executed in the jail. The jail has also been used as a set for several films. Such as the name of the father. This is now a musesum. Plus you have Temple bar lots of bars and clubs etc there but not the real Ireland.

Answer 4

The Jameson museum. At the beginning they show you a short film and then ask for 2 volunteers. Put your hand straight up because you'll get to be a taster. Then everyone else has to watch you consume about 6 different whiskies and a few bourbons for comparison. A splendid afternoon! You won't fail to have a great weekend in Dublin. Have fun.

Answer 5

Dun laoighre is nice for a walk along the pier and you can see the Tower that Jame joyce lived in and his book is set in at the start.
Also get some Teddy's Icecream, its amazing.
You can get the dart there, its an easy system.

All of the above answers are right. the Guinnes brewery has a cool skyscraper bar called "gravity" and you get a free pint there at the end.

Also, the Mongolian BBQ is a great fun and not so expensive meal.
Its behind the Central Bank. Angelsea Rd.

Have fun
