As Europe's fast-growing tourist destination, Dublin is an exciting blend of old and new — the political, economic, social, literary, and educational capital of Ireland.
Rich in history and mired in progress, Dublin's streetscapes are a harmonious blend of narrow laneways and wide avenues, medieval castles and multi-story shopping centers, 18th century Georgian landmarks and glassy modern skyscrapers, horse-drawn carriages and double-decker buses, dozens of chic sidewalk cafés and over a thousand friendly pubs.
Above all, Dublin has welcomed the 21st century with new hotels, restaurants, theaters, attractions, transportation systems, shopping centers, pedestrianized streets, and indeed whole new neighborhoods like the Customs House Quay area, the Docklands, Smithfield Village and trendy Temple Bar. If you haven't been to Dublin in a few years, you'll hardly recognize it. And if you have never been here before, a real treat awaits.
