What can you ask for but what you get on this street!? One show after the other from street performers. And convenience of food. Take some of the side streets for good window shopping too. This road/mall takes you to many other tourist spots. More

wonderful shopping experience, or just a day people watching!. the shops on the main walkway are your norm for a shop experience, but i really enjoyed the small side streets with the unique boutiques and traditional Irish pubs and shops. More

this is a colourful area of Dublin. Some shopping to do in this area. Nice to walk around and look at everything that is happening here. Centrally located so you can walk from many of the attractions that are nearby. More
