One night in Dublin

I'm off to Dublin on a one night business trip next week (not St. Paddy's day ).
Staying on the outskirts but thinking I'll catch a bus into the city in the evening.
Any suggestions for a sample of the 'real' Dublin?

Re: One night in Dublin

No answers? Blimey!

I'd have a wander round O'Connell Street where the GPO (Post Office) is a must-see. Then the Temple Bar quarter and just up and down the Liffey.

See if you can find the 'hags with the bags' and the 'tart with the cart'.

If you're into history then try Dublinia - more than just a museum:

Re: One night in Dublin

"Real dublin" is not Temple Bar I'm afraid, that's a tourist trap for brits on their stag do's and it's bloody expensive.
