I really enjoyed a week which I spent there. We have visited some interesting places, but here I'd like to write about Dublin. It was the first time I've been there, but now I know I'll go there more often :)
Dublin is the capital of Ireland and belongs to the province of Leinster. The city is listed by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network as a global city, and I've to admit that it's really good comunicated even with the vilages, f. ex. from Rush we could tahe a fast train to Dublin. And it wasn't as standard as we have in our dear PKP, it was far much better!
Some places which I recommend to visit in Dublin:
Grafton Street- is one of the two principal shopping streets in Dublin city centre. There are many ''famous'' people which we can find almost every day, for example, John Nee, a storyteller or Rodrigo y Gabriela (no, it's not a mistake, they're called so), a Mexican guitar duo. There is also Roadmage,
a street magic act created by magician and entertainer Owen Lean. And if you're hungry, you could eat some Irish dishes, such as:
Guiness- maybe I'm not a beer-enthusiast, but I really enjoy visiting this brewery. It's huge, so it takes much time to see every corner of it. There we can learn about the history, see some instuments required in a beer production and taste some dishes prepared with Guiness beer. And in the end we can drink an original Guiness, it's included in a ticket price. We can also buy some souvenirs of corse.
Natural History Museum- my favourite :) There we can find many species of animals, that's why it is also called ''dead zoo'' (personally I prefer the first name). Here are some examples (sometimes they loos so realistic than I thought there were alive!):
Finally, when I was at the airport, I've met such a lovely potato :)
Ireland sounds really nice... :) I must go there one day
