Dublin - the capital of Ireland and one of Europe's most vibrant cities. The whole region is buzzing, riding high on the crest of an economic boom and its effects are to be seen everywhere, from the frantic night life to a skyline filled with cranes.

Home to over a quarter of the Ireland's population, almost one million in all, Dublin is a youthful, vibrant and dynamic city with an ever-increasing cosmopolitan influence.

Chic restaurants and ultra-modern hotels have brought the city centre back to life. Temple Bar needs no introduction and the older icons such as Trinity College, Merrion Square and the National Museum are all enjoying the benefits of Dublin's new status as a year-round tourist destination.

If the pace is just too much, escape to the hills of Howth, the Dalkey headland or the majestic Wicklow Mountains.
