I was mesmerized with amazement, a giant lighting arrest-or, I was in Dublin for few hours only, so I took a very inexpensive the bus from the airport to downtown Dublin, Had a real hearty Irish breakfast at one of the local restaurants and walked...More
It's pretty cool, Idk people just seem to have a habit of bad mouthing modern art and architecture, but I feel the spire is different and interesting. I used to as a bit of a navigational aid to help me get back to my hostel...More
It's a really tall column soaring into the sky. The backstory and its nicknames are very interesting. Wouldn't go out the way to see it, but you'll probably see if anyway if you are doing anything on O'Connell Street.
