Answer

Last year, my cousin, Nathan, and I decided to take a short break to Dublin, the capital of Ireland. We stayed at a small hotel near the city centre. When we arrived it was a bit cold and damp, but we didn’t mind.

Dublin is a wonderful place. While it is a modern city, it has some beautiful old buildings. The architecture is quite fascinating and there are some splendid old houses lining the narrow cobbled streets in some parts of the city.

We only had a few days to explore the city, but we made the most of our visit. We went on a tour to some of the old historic castles and bridges. We also went to some interesting museums. There were plenty of traditional restaurants, too. We enjoyed great food and traditional music day and nights in this truly unique city.

We loved every moment of our visit and were really sad when it was time to leave. Dublin is so amazing that I definitely plan to go back one day.
