Question

I will be traveling to Dublin and renting a car. What are the "must see" places outside of the city?

Answer 1

Maybe, TESCO at the Dandrum Shopping Centre ?? :-)

Answer 2

Quite a few actually, if you're here for a while make sure you hit the Ring Of Kerry and the West Coast, all about a 4 - 5 hour car journey from Dublin. Closer though would be Glendalough in Co. Wicklow, there's old round towers and a beautiful town called Laragh close by for lunch. Also I would advise a trip out to Co. Kildare (1 hour away form Dublin) to the Japanese gardens & Irish National Stud, the gardens aren't very Irish but well worth a look. Pwerscourt Springs is also a wonderful relaxing place for a day trip, it's very close to Dublin.... you could hit it on the way home from Kildare. Newgrange in Co. Meath is very beautiful, it's where the pagans used to worship and the old standing stones are still in perfect condition.

I could talk all day about this, if you want anymore info mail me.
