Dublin Highlights

The Dublin everyone wants to see, told the way a good local would tell it. Trinity College and its Long Room, the old Parliament that became a bank, the bullet marks on O'Connell Bridge, the GPO, Christ Church's mummified cat and rat, and Oscar Wilde lounging in Merrion Square. Twelve great places, with extra stories at most of them.
