Situated midway down the east coast of Ireland and straddling the River Liffey, Dublin is an ancient city steeped in a rich and varied history that spans centuries. Ireland is often referred to as the ‘land of saints and scholars’ and nowhere is this more apt a phrase than in Dublin city.  Literature and the Arts have always been highly regarded in the city – in fact Dublin was home to such literary legends as Oscar Wilde, Jonathon Swift, James Joyce, George Bernard Shaw, W.B Yeats, Samuel Beckett and James Kavanagh. The high regard that is given to the arts is also evident in the many museums, theatres and galleries that can be found throughout the city.

Of course, despite the aforementioned cultural and historical significance of the city, it is also widely known that Dublin is not a place that takes itself too seriously. In fact, the nightlife and party atmosphere in Dublin’s city centre draws as much tourism to the city as the cultural and artistic allure of the capital.

Things to see/do in Dublin City

Culture vultures visiting Dublin are spoiled for choice with the myriad of excellent galleries and museums in the city that represent not only home-grown literary and artistic talent, but international greats as well. Added incentive for visiting these attractions is that many of them are admission free or have very low cost of entry. The National Museum, Natural History Museum, National Gallery, Hugh Lane Gallery of Modern Art, and Chester Beatty Library and Gallery of Oriental Art are just a selection that are free to enter – but if you think your budget can stretch to it, some do accept voluntary donations at your discretion.

The weather in Dublin can be unpredictable and even downright miserable, but if you are lucky enough to get some sunshine during your stay, the many public parks and gardens are delightful places to be. Packed with Dubliners trying to soak up as much of the sunshine as they can, there is a palpable ‘holiday’ atmosphere in the air – even at lunchtime on a Tuesday afternoon. Have some fun spotting the ‘Irish tans’ – roaring red shoulders and backs emphasized by pasty white strap marks – usually widespread after Irish skin has been exposed to a few rare days of Dublin sunshine! A picnic in the park is a pleasant way to lunch when the weather allows – not to mention kind to your budget.

Convenience, independance and adventure - Dublin Car Hire offers you all three, and Dublin Car Hire with Argus Car Hire Dublin offers them at a guaranteed low price.
