In Dublin, you’ll find stirring reminders of Ireland’s ancient and recent past, bustling streets, and friendly faces.
While many big cities are notoriously cold and unfriendly, Ireland’s capital is an urban playground where people really consider strangers just “friends who’ve yet to meet.” And Dublin offers the best urban thrills in the Republic of Ireland. Here are a few of my favourite things to do in Ireland’s capital.
Ireland’s national struggle and the acts of its great heroes are still within living memory, and making the Kilmainham Gaol a worthy pilgrimage site for anyone excited about Irish independence. Many of Ireland’s George Washingtons and Nathan Hales — patriots who wished they had more than one life to give to their national cause — were held by the British as political prisoners in this jail, or even executed there.
The GAA museum, loated at Croke Park Stadium, offers a high-tech, interactive introduction to Ireland’s favorite games. Relive the greatest moments in hurling and Irish football history. Then give this sport a whirl — pick up a stick and a ball and take a whack.
