The bustling Irish capital has much to offer the visitor, especially with regard to literary history. Once home to Oscar Wilde, James Joyce, W.B. Yeats, G.B. Shaw, Samuel Beckett, Bram Stoker, Jonathan Swift, to name but a few, Dublin today bears testimony to its literary genius in countless museums, galleries, libraries and arts centres. In this city, where the spoken (slightly self-deprecating) word is at least as entertaining as the written, you'll find many sights of historical significance, as well as monuments dear to Dubliners, such as the statue of Molly Malone, a beautiful fishmonger, also known as "The Tart With The Cart", "The Dish With The Fish" or "The Trollop With The Scallop", the statue of Anna Livia "The Floozie In The Jacuzzi", the statue of Oscar Wilde "The Quare In The Square" and "The Time (or Chime) In The Slime" (an underwater clock in the River Liffey). Not to mention Dublin's vibrant nightlife, the liveliest of which can be found in the Temple Bar district. Dublin of course has it's own microclimate, temperatures are normally mild and extremes are rare, but it's always a good idea to keep an umbrella at hand.
