Dublin Centre

centro dublino

The streets in the centre of Dublin allow a pleasant walk taking in Victorian houses, typical pubs and the sounds and smells which characterise this city.

Grafton Street, one of the main-roads which connect Trinity College to Saint Stephen's Green, has at its corners very beautiful and colourful flower markets. While along the streets it's easy to bump into iron statues of characters who are more or less famous and more or less real, from Joyce to the mythical Molly Malone, character in the popular song which became the official anthem of the Dublin Rugby national.

One of the most famous places in the city is undoubtedly the Temple Bar, meeting place for the youth and area of great cultural, which in the first years of the 90's saw the rebirth of Dublin city and Irish culture.

DublinLastly it's called for to mention the parks of Dublin city. The biggest one in the centre, with nine hectares, is without a doubt St. Stephen's Green, whose layout is due to Sir A.E. Guinness's contributions. Many mostly vacant Georgian style houses can be found around the park, whilst further in you can find a little lake crossable by bridge, and statues and covered areas.

Merrion Square is decidedly smaller, but by no means less fascinating. In the north west corner, a half supine Oscar Wilde on a rock observes Dubliners and tourists hurrying down the streets.
