Dublin, the capital of Ireland, is a popular vacation destination for tourists from around the globe, with a lot to offer for residents and visitors alike. The weather in Ireland is mild, and does not have extreme temperatures in any season. This city receives the least amount of rainfall in the entire country each year.


Dublin Castle is a big attraction for locals and visitors both. This castle dates back hundreds of years, and is an incredible experience. But this is not the only historic attraction that the city offers. Mansion House, Trinity College and St. Patrick's Cathedral are also popular destinations. The city also has a large number of parks, and is considered on of the greenest capitals in all of Europe. Phoenix Park and Herbert Park are two favorites, and attract many visitors each day.

Dublin is also known for pubs, and for a population that is warm-hearted and friendly to tourists. The city is a frequent stop on most European vacations, and is considered a must see by all the travel experts and guides.

Planning a trip to Dublin does not have to be difficult with resources like the Dublin Community Blog, where residents of the city describe what is going on and all of the current events.

You can also find bloggers talking about Dublin on sites like Dublin Streets and Travel Pod.
