     We leave with breakfast at 10:00 am from the hotel and then drive down to the Dublin Castle, a historic site that was established in the year 1204 A.D.!!-HISTORY .The castle consists of 2 museums that we attended, the Garda Museum and Revenue Museum. There is a special place within the castle named Chapel Royal which is a site of the former King, along with this there are different households and officials who attend the castle. The Dublin Castle was a place for Ireland's parliament to be set; Catholic priests used to work the society's issues (ex. religious wars, crimes, elections, etc.) in the olden days throughout this palace.We have planned to get the most of the experience with a specialized tour that goes through art, architectural, and revolutionary areas within the castle. The cost of this would be: $30.22 for our whole group. For lunch at noon we will be back at the Punjabi Nature Restaurant, which is $24.83 total.

    After our meal, we'll visit Dublin's Trinity College. This college is one of the 7 ancient universities of the entire Britain! Trinity College's history goes back to when it was used to be seen as the Protestant Ascendancy where great landowners assembled for political and economic issues. In the college there is also the Dublin University Central Athletic Club (DUCAC) which handles approximately 50 sports clubs held throughout Trinity. Hockey, cricket, rugby, football, boat, rifle clubs are some examples of the clubs there.-SPORTS.
