My first international travel which
brought my dream of going out of India came true after many years. It was business assignment with some opportunities
to look around in Ireland. Visited Tourist places around
Dublin like Wiklow Mountains, Dublin Castle, Glandalough, etc. Could not visit Cliffs of Moher which is one of
the most popular tourist destinations in Ireland. Also, experienced and enjoyed the first snowfall of the life. A very memorable tour to last in the memory for a long time.

A three-months of stay in Dublin - capital city of Ireland gave me an opportunity to explore the beautiful city of Dublin at leisure. The city is situated on the banks of River Liffey.
Temple Bar is an area on the south bank of the River Liffe and is promoted as Dublin's 'cultural quarter', city centre's nightlife, and a tourist destination
The Dublin City Tour for one day covered Dublin Castle and Glendalough in Wicklow Mountains. Temple Bar is an area on the south bank of the River Liffe and is promoted as Dublin's 'cultural quarter', city centre's City Center's Nightlife, and a popular tourist destination.
Guinness Beer is also a part of cultural aspect of Irish people. A self-guided tour of Guinness Storehouse includes an account of the ingredients used to make the stout and a description of how it is made.

Dublin
Castle was built by the dark pool ("Dubh Linn") which
gave Dublin its name. This pool lies on the lower course of the River Poddle before its confluence with the River Liffey; when the castle was built, the Liffey was
much wider, and the castle was effectively defended by both rivers.
Irish Jewish Museum, Dublin is a small museum dedicated
to the history of the Irish Jewish
community.
