There are a lot of people who have spent time in Dublin whether it has been for a long weekend or perhaps a week or more but making the most of what Dublin has to offer involves more than a tour round the Guinness Storehouse and listening to some folk music on one of the many bars in Temple Bar. The best feature of Dublin has to be the amount of landmarks that are present in the city from the old Dublin Castle to the modern Dublin Spire or Monument of Light' and the many cathedrals and churches that also contribute to the many other stunning examples of architecture in the city.
The city has earned a reputation as one of the friendliest cities in Europe which has also helped increase the city's popularity with a vibrant nightlife making it a popular city amongst younger people and helping to attract younger, skilled workers to the city.
Many people, especially those working in the technology sector have found that Dublin has become increasingly popular for work with the city now having the second highest wages for a city in the entire world, ahead of London and even New York! The massive economic growth in Ireland in recent years has often focussed on Ireland and many global brands such as Microsoft, Google and Amazon among many other internet companies have bases for their European side of their business located in Dublin.
Dublin has always been incredibly easy to access as well, for years ferry crossings have been the favoured method of transport as you are able to bring your car or travel on your own since there are copious options in the city for transport such as buses, the Luas tram network and the popular Dublin Bikes scheme where you can rent a bike much like other European cities such as Paris and Copenhagen.
There's plenty more to Dublin than meets the eye and whilst you can still enjoy the typical tourist activities there is plenty more bubbling away under the surface for you to explore and enjoy in Dublin.
