As one of Europe's
oldest cities, Dublin has an abundance of cultural riches, it is also a thriving
modern city renowned for the friendliness of its people, its pub life and shopping.
Part of its great appeal is its proximity to the rural delights of the counties
that surround it. Mountainous Wicklow; renowned as the Garden of Ireland, Kilkenny
with its medieval city and lush landscape and Waterford, home to the famous crystal.
