Built in the 18th century. Houses the Department of the Environment, Community and Local Government. Located on the north bank of the River Liffey, on Custom House Quay between Butt Bridge and Talbot Memorial Bridge.
These sculptures are a commemorative work dedicated to the Irish people forced to emigrate during the 19th century Irish Famine. The bronze sculptures were designed and crafted by Dublin sculptor Rowan Gillespie and are located on Custom House Quay in Dublin’s Docklands.
This is one of the more modern bridges in Dublin. It opened in 2009. I really love the design and the contrast compared to a lot of the older bridges in the city.

This is the main chamber of the Old Library at Trinity College. It houses 200,000 of the library's oldest books. A CGI version of the room was used in Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones.
The only reason I even went here was for my friends that care about Guinness. I don't drink and so I really could have skipped this, but it's all good because I got a few good photos out of it.
This was probably my favorite place I visited in Dublin. It was built in 1796. Many of the people involved in the campaign for Irish independence were imprisoned here. In 1916 the British executed the leaders of the Easter Rising here. Very creepy and a lot of history that I don't have room to even mention here.
