Dublin

Ireland's capital and most populous city, Dublin, is located at the east coast of the island at the River Liffey estuary. It is a perfect fusion of historical and cultural heritage and a busy modern life.
Dublin's original Irish name was “Dubh linn” which means “black pool”. This historic lake with black water once existed under the present Coach House and Castle Gardens of Dublin Castle.
