"DUBLIN" Dublin by hevbell

I visited Dublin in September 2002 for the first time. Despite living so close to Ireland this was the first time I had ventured over the Irish Sea. I really hadn't heard much about the city at all, aside from its reputation for nightlife, but I was pleasantly surprised and had a great stay. So good that I was determined to go back some day and have now been a further two times - in August 2004 and most recently October 2006.

Dublin is a lively city with so much to see and do - or of course you could always just relax in one of the many pubs and enjoy the craic!

    What a wonderful page about Dublin. I'm still smiling about the statue called "hags with bags"! Shakespeare Play & writer's museum really appeals to me. Loved tip about "colorful city;great photos. Surprised that "booze" is expensive here. Excellent work.

    Wonderful Dublin page Heather! I would love visiting this city one day. I enjoyed all those statues, hahaha, and reading about their nicknames :-)) I think I won't try the guinness on my trip though, lol, I am not such a big fan of it either :-)

    Nice Pictures- As for the statue of Kavanagh- you were about 70m away when you took the picture of the Barge! He is beside the lock.
