Rick Steves' Europe. Dublin and Mystical Sidetrips
Description
Dublin's story is of feast and famine: from its 18th-century Golden Age to its 20th-century struggles for independence to its boomtime today. Join European travel expert and best-selling author, Rick Steves, as we explore the town's foreboding castle, patriotic jail, and Trinity College with its illuminated Book of Kells - a bright light from the Dark Ages. At night we party in Temple Bar, awash with Celtic music and frothy pints of Guinness. We sidetrip to the prehistoric necropolis of Newgrange and the medieval monastery at Glendalough, tucked in the scenic Wicklow Mountains.
