GUINESS = A MUST. Its just something you gotta do. Take your student ID should you have one, saves you money on alot of things over there. We checked out alot of the old churches and parks in Dublin and just kind of enjoyed the friendly atmosphere. Certainly there is more then that but thats really all we did. Still, it was great to experience the cutlure of Irish.
Temple Bar...I couldn't remember the name of it, but yes. My wife and I stayed at a Holiday Inn about a 1/2 mile away (we didn't mind walking to save money on a hotel). Great night life. Almost every bar had some local(s) playing Irish music on their guitar. Go in, order a pint, sit back and enjoy the culture.
