Dublin Things to Do Tips by Krumlovgirl

Very old and very quiet. I felt like I was in a church when I was walking around on this campus. Most people come here to look at the Book of Kels, which is a perfectly good reason for coming here. Still, it’s an interesting place in that even without the Book it still has a lot of history to it. Worth a couple hours of your time.

We honestly didnýt have any clue as to which tour we should go on, and in the end it didnýt matter because this one was the only one that had room for us. We had a blast, even though it was a large group. The first place we visited was the Hill of Tara, where one can supposedly see six different counties in Ireland at once. We had remarkable weather and the Hill was very beautiful. Then we visited Trim Castle, the site of the ýBraveheartý movie, and Newgrange. Newgrange was awesome. Itýs this really old (as in 5,000 years old which makes it older than Stonehenge) tomb thatýs on par with the pyramids age-wise and historically. And we got to go inside! We also visited the new Brý na Boinne Visitor Centre. Our guide was extremely knowledgeable and cheerful and gave us a lot of little trivial information along the way.
