Dublin Dreams—72 Hours to Discover Irish History and Charm

The city of Dublin is home to the illuminated Book of Kells, which is recognized as one of the world’s oldest books. It’s definitely worth a look! This is a day tour that lasts for 7.5 hours and allows you to explore and learn about the distinctive history and landscape of Ireland. You will take a scenic train ride back to Dublin after visiting an old town and going on a tour of an old famine ship from the 1800s. After the tour, you will take the train.

Sweny’s Drug Store

Sweny’s Pharmacy is from the Victorian era, and it looks almost exactly the same as it did in James Joyce’s book Ulysses. The shop, which is near where Oscar Wilde was born and across the street from the Lincoln Place end of Trinity College Dublin, still sells used books and lemon soap.

The place is run by volunteers, most of whom are in their 20s, 30s, or 40s. They are working hard to keep the place open. They use Patreon to help pay the rent. Patreon is a crowd-funded donation tool that gives donors benefits based on the tier they choose.

It’s no surprise that Dream Escape offers some unique activities here, such as a private bell-ringing tour and a guided tour of the castle’s underground tomb.

The Iveagh Gardens

Iveagh Gardens shines quietly in the heart of Dublin, even on a dull October day. It’s not as well known as St. Stephen’s Green and its shaded walks don’t really stand out to people walking by.

If your kids need to burn off some energy, take them to Fun Galaxy, a family-friendly indoor playground that is open even when it’s raining. You can sit back and take it easy while the kids have fun.

When you go to a pub that’s been around for 190 years, you’ll feel like a local. Grab a pint of Guinness and dance to traditional Irish music. You can even take lessons from a pro to learn how to play the Irish fiddle.

The Rock ‘n’ Roll Museum in Ireland

Dubliners know their city better than anyone else, and they are happy to show tourists around. Start your trip off with a bar crawl and a beer with some locals.

Hayley Williams, the lead singer of Paramore, played an acoustic version of Dreams by The Cranberries at her show at the 3Arena on April 13. The show was a tribute to the late Dolores O’Riordan, who was a member of the band.

At the Irish Rock ‘n’ Roll Museum, you can see lyrics that were written by hand and go behind the scenes of a real venue. You should also go to the Guinness Storehouse. It tells the story of Ireland’s best-known product and includes a pint at their Gravity Bar on the roof.

Park in Merrion Square

Merrion Square Park was once a private park that was only open to people who lived in the square’s Georgian red-brick townhouses. Now, anyone can go there. In the middle of the park is a statue of Oscar Wilde in a casual pose, lying on a quartz rock. The statue faces his childhood home at 1 Merrion Square.

Over the years, the famous square has been home to many famous people, like the Irish politician Daniel O’Connell, whose statue is in the park, and the poet W. B. Yeats, who lived at No. 82 on the square’s south side.

Today, the square is a public park run by Dublin City Council. In recent years, they have made a number of big changes to bring back the square’s Georgian roots. There are also many national cultural organizations there.

The National Museum of the Leprechaun

This is the first museum of its kind. It opens up a fun and interesting world of folklore and legend. The story tours during the day are good for kids and adults of all kinds.

When people go to a fairy hill, they can climb on big pieces of furniture to see how the world looks from a leprechaun’s point of view. The guides are excited and funny, which adds to the magic of going to a museum.

Check out the Dublin bookish Pub Crawl for a more bookish trip. Guides lead groups through the pubs where famous Irish writers wrote their famous works. This is one of the best ways to experience the culture and beauty of Dublin’s people.

Street Art

Street art is a form of social reflection that tries to get people talking and thinking. It is often political and rebellious. Walk around Dublin’s streets to see this interesting and thought-provoking style of art for yourself.

You can’t go to Ireland without trying its famous beer, and the Guinness Storehouse is a truly unique way to learn about brewing. You can also try a pint of the black stuff at the Gravity Bar, which is high above the city.

Grafton Street is the city’s main shopping street. You can find great shops and skilled street performers there. After that, go to St. Stephen’s Green in the middle of Dublin for a peaceful outdoor break.
