Dia Dhuit! In Ireland that’s how you say hello, and with the people living in Ireland that’s all you’ll want to do on your trip.
The first thing you’ll want to do is visit Glendalough, which means Glen of the two lakes. This place is a deserted village located in the Wicklow Mountains. Since it is easily accessed by cars, it is the perfect stop to visit.
Next you’ll want to visit Georgian, Dublin. This beautiful stop in Dublin is known for its incredible Georgian architecture. You will NOT be able to swoon over the magnificent structures present. Georgian’s most famous building is No. 29 Fitzwillam Street Lower. It has been restored to its full glory, and re-furnished.
After that you’ll have to head to the Dublin Zoo for ye’ little lads; it is, after all, the biggest zoo in the island of Ireland. It may be a long walk, but all you need to do is take a bus, or taxi to the Phoenix Park. This Zoo is divided into six part, each with its own theme. The six themes are as follows; African Plains, Fringes of the Arctic, The Kzirange Forest Trail, World of Primates, World of Cats, and City Farm/ Pet’s Corner. Your kids, if you have any, will have a fantastic time. If you don’t have children, you will also have a great time.
If you are a history freak, you will most definitely love the National Museum of Ireland. Even if you aren’t that great at finding your way around areas, this museum is easily located in Collins Barracks. Which also means that Dublin itself is an easier area to navigate. This museum has three sections; Archaeology, Decorative Art, and Natural History. Decorative Art showcases the clothing styles of furniture, costumes, and weaponry, which also shows some sort of Irish pride.
Good-bye! Or Slán, as they say in Ireland!!
