00:27

Despite a long and sometimes tragic history of invasion and resistance,

00:31

this thriving business capital has

00:33

poetry, music and literature

00:35

percolating through its cobblestones.

00:39

Dublin's ancient streets are compact enough to explore on foot

00:43

or by bicycle.

00:47

00:53

many of which are tributes to Dublin’s finest moments and heroes.

00:59
