The word “Dublin” is a derivative of “Duiblinn,” which means black pool, or dark tide pool. Dublin’s black pool has since ceased to exist, but its former location is marked behind Dublin Castle. Speaking of the castle, your Dublin sightseeing should include a stop at the castle walls—it’s been in continuous use since its construction in the 13th century, and it’s a striking piece of architecture. Looking for something a little more modern? Have a look around Dame Street; there’s no shortage of shops to check out, or pubs that will welcome you to sample their fare. Ready to jump back into Dublin’s history? Head to Jervis Street, where you can get to know one of Ireland’s most famous characters at the National Leprechaun Museum, Learn about the mythology of and tour exhibits related to that mythological figurehead of Irish lore, and maybe search for a pot of gold. Kilmainham Gaol is another popular tourist destination; this is where you’ll find a record of Ireland’s political history, as well as see the living conditions inside a notoriously rough prison. In the evening, head for the Temple Bar, a district that serves as the hub of the city’s nightlife. It is where you’ll go to eat dinner, grab drinks, go dancing, or to watch the fascinating people of Dublin go by. What’s your favorite part of Dublin?
