It's one of the greatest cities in the world but how much of it have you really seen?
The vast majority of people work all week long, so the weekends are the one time to get out there and properly enjoy what Dublin has to offer.
We thought we'd create a list of things that people absolutely have to do at least once when they live here. Start ticking them off...
1. Climb the sugarloaf
We know, it's in Wicklow but getting to the top gives you amazing views over both Dublin and the Garden County
2. Climb the roof at Croke Park
A tour organised to get an incredible view from the city centre as well as some amazing back story on the GAA.
3. Picnic In St Stephen's Green
Grab a sandwich, takeaway or slice of pizza and enjoy one of the prettiest parks in Ireland.
4. Afternoon Tea In The Merrion
A super high end treat. The cakes look like art work.
5. Try The Viking Splash Tour
You see them every single day of the week. Jump on one and have some unexpected fun.
6. Spend The Day In Howth Walking And Eating
An absolute dream of a village. Walk the cliffs and then eat seafood.

One of the biggest and most beautiful open spaces in Europe. See if you can jog all the way around it.
