Dublin
A small capital with a huge reputation, Dublin has a mix of heritage and hedonism that will not disappoint. All you have to do is show up.
Dublin has been in the news since the 9th century, and while traces of its Viking past have been largely washed away, the city is a living museum of its history since then, with medieval castles and cathedrals on display alongside the architectural splendours of its 18th-century heyday, when Dublin was the most handsome Georgian city of the British Empire and a fine reflection of the aspirations of its most privileged citizens. How power was wrested from their hands is another story, and youll learn that one in its museums and on its walking tours.
Dubliners will admit theirs isnt the prettiest city, but will remind you that pretty things are as easy to like as they are to forgetbefore showing you the showstopper Georgian bits to prove that Dublin has a fine line in sophisticated elegance. True love is demonstrated with brutal unsentimentality round here, but theyll go soft at the knees when talking about the character and personality of the greatest city in the world, if you ignore all the others. Garrulous, amiable and witty, Dubliners at their ease are the greatest hosts of all, a charismatic bunch with compelling soul and sociability.
Even in these times of green juices and heart-monitoring apps, the pub remains the alpha and omega of social interaction in Dublin. The citys relationship with alcohol is complex and conflicted but, at its very best, a night out in the pub is the perfect social lubricant and one of the highlights of a visit to Dublin. Every Dubliner has their favourite haunt, from the never-changing traditional pub to whatever new opening is bringing in the beautiful people. With more than 1000 of them spread about the city, youll be spoilt for choice.
For as long as its been around, Dublin has looked beyond Irish shores for inspiration. Once the second city of the (British) Empire, Dublin has always maintained a pretty cosmopolitan outlook and in the last three decades has conspicuously embraced diversity and multiculturalism. Youll hear languages and eat foods from all four corners of the globe, and while it used to be said that real Dubs had to be born within the canals like their parents and grandparents before them, these days youre just as likely to meet a Dub whose parents were born in Warsaw, Lagos, Cairo or Beijing.
By Fionn Davenport, Writer
At Dublin Airport I get into a taxi. Within 10 minutes the driver and I know everything about each other. Where we were born, where we grew up, which football team we support. He gives me his potted view of why Irish politics is a waste of space, and I tell him what I liked about whatever destination Ive just been to. Thats Dublin for you, a city that dispenses with formalities and gets down to the nitty-gritty of everyday existence. We may never see each other again, but in that moment we are friends.

A good puzzle would be to cross Dublin without passing a pub, mused Leopold Bloom in James Joyces Ulysses. A conundrum, given theres at least one on every street, but the answer is simple: go into each one you find. Over a hundred years later, the centre of all social life in Dublin remains the bar. There are more than 700, from traditional boozers, such as , to the trendiest watering holes. Its where youll meet Dubliners at their convivial, easy-going best and get a sense of what makes this city tick.
