The capital and largest city of Ireland, located on the east coast. A major cultural, economic, and political center.
From Irish 'Dubh Linn' meaning 'black pool', referring to a dark tidal pool on the River Liffey. The Norse settlers later called it 'Dyflin', which evolved into the modern English name Dublin.
Dublin is famous for its literary heritage - it's the only city designated as a UNESCO City of Literature where you can take a literary pub crawl visiting establishments frequented by James Joyce, Oscar Wilde, and other great writers. The city appears as a character itself in Joyce's 'Ulysses', making it one of the most thoroughly documented cities in literature.
