An Post General Post OfficePass by
Stand outside the GPO on O’Connell Street and take in its monumental columns and statues. This façade is where the Irish Republic was proclaimed in 1916, with history written directly onto the stone.

Cross the Ha’penny Bridge and enjoy its elegant white arch from the open air. This cast iron crossing has carried Dubliners over the Liffey since 1816, one step and one story at a time.

Pause outside The Palace Bar on Fleet Street. Its Victorian frontage hints at the writers, journalists and arguments that once filled this unofficial embassy of Dublin opinion.

View Trinity College from College Green and admire its fortified entrance. The gate, cobbles and surrounding buildings tell the story of a university built as power before it became prestige.

Stand by the Molly Malone statue and observe Dublin’s most sung and least documented heroine. The bronze fishmonger embodies folklore, music and the city’s love of affectionate mockery.
Dublin CastlePass by
Explore the exterior of Dublin Castle from the gates and courtyards. These walls once housed British rule and later witnessed the quiet handover of power to an independent Ireland.

Admire Christ Church Cathedral from Christchurch Place. Its layered stonework, flying buttresses and long history are fully readable from the outside streets and square.
The Brazen HeadPass by
Wrap up your tour outside The Brazen Head. Take a moment to enjoy the pub’s historic façade and riverside setting before ending your walk at Dublin’s most stubbornly legendary drinking spot.
