Dublin tourism







Today we visited Trinity College a huge complex where only protestant students attended in days gone by, but today most of its 9500 students are catholic. Women were admitted to the college in 1903. Alot of famous Irish people had studied here for example the writer Oscar Wilde. Ireland is the country of many famous writers such as Oscar Wilde, James Joyce, George Bernard Shaw and Samuel Beckett and musicians U2, Van Morison, Sinead O"Connor, Phil Lynott and Rory Gallagher.



We visited two beautiful parks in Dublin and to see Irish art at the National Gallery.
