Dublin, Capital city in Republic of Ireland
Dublin stands on the eastern coast of Ireland, divided into northern and southern districts by the Liffey River flowing through its center.
Vikings established Dublin as a trade settlement in 841, transforming it from a Celtic settlement into a strategic commercial port between islands.
The Trinity College Library preserves the Book of Kells, an illuminated manuscript from 800 AD containing the four Gospels of the New Testament.
The public transport network includes the DART rail system and Dublin Bus services, connecting all major districts with the city center.
Dublin houses the Guinness Storehouse, built in 1759, displaying the brewing techniques in a seven-floor building shaped as a giant pint glass.

Dublin combines historical structures with modern culture. The city features medieval castles, universities, museums, parks, and traditional pubs. The city center provides shopping streets and cultural venues for visitors.
Dublin features several rooftop bars and restaurants that provide unique views of the city. From the Gravity Bar located at the top of the Guinness Storehouse, offering a circular view over the entire capital, to neighborhood terraces like the Fitzsimons Hotel in Temple Bar, these venues present different perspectives on Georgian architecture, historic monuments, and the lively streets of the city center. This selection includes a variety of addresses: fine dining restaurants such as Sophie's Restaurant or Fade Street Social with their modern cuisine, steakhouses like Ryleigh's Rooftop, Mediterranean establishments like Layla's, and the Vintage Cocktail Club for mixology enthusiasts. Some, like The Taphouse, maintain the genuine Irish pub atmosphere while offering views from the upper floor.
